For my "style and substance" class- our assignment was to do what we would be doing if we didn't have an assignment. I really psyched myself out with this one but I managed to adjust my thinking realizing what i would be doing is experimenting. I've been wanting to try this style of coloring for a while, and this isn't my favorite piece ever but I did learn a LOT.

This is a beautiful japanese folk tale that has inspired a lot of art, and I've been wanting to do something with it for a while so yay!
