Artist's Comments
I saw this picture of a meandering passage froma shrine dedicated to Inari foxes in Japan and wanted to incorporate it into a painting. I also wanted to do a painting with a lot of red so....here we go. The twelve animals of the Zodiac are on some of the lamps. The Kanji is gibber mostly but the two characters on the arch directly facing says "After Life."
Its just a quickie compared to the usual time it takes to make a complete painting,but I still like it. I love old world Japan artwork and architecture. Love it SO MUCH. OC/PS/TLC |

 reports, 1d 21h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
