Onryō: My Big Eye Sadako Drawing for Drawlloween!

 


Here's my latest for Mab Graves's #Drawlloween challenge! Today's prompt is #yokai.


I was inspired by the terrifying spirit Sadako from The Ring for this piece. Titled "Onryō," my big-eye version has a haunting and chilling feel that I think captures the traditional Japanese vengeful spirit.


This 8"x10" traditional drawing is a mixed media study on 9"x12" toned black paper. I used a minimalistic approach to the lighting, which really enhances the elegance and spooky atmosphere of the art.


The original drawing is available for purchase! Please contact me directly for details if you're interested.


Thanks so much to @MabGraves for hosting this fun challenge!
