Mononoke Mugs
Description: Originally drawn on April 20th, 2024 and given as a gift to one of my closest friends for their birthday. Probably would have never given the series a chance if it weren't for her, so this is my way of saying thanks. I'm a new Mononoke fan, and it seems I joined just in time for the movie. This is a full color print, and it should look good no matter what color you choose to print on.
Description: Mononoke are supernatural spirits from Japanese folklore, often born from powerful emotions such as anger, sorrow, or resentment. They are mysterious beings capable of haunting places or people, and are among the most recognizable entities in Japanese mythology. This artwork portrays Mononoke as a ghostly woman with demonic features, surrounded by drifting spirits and cherry blossoms. A gothic interpretation of Japanese folklore and dark fantasy. Perfect for fans of yokai, Japanese mythology, gothic aesthetics, and supernatural art.
