unforgettable summer day

HELLO!


Today I would like to share a new work with You. The idea of woman wearing yukata and holding a fan appeared in my mind. Honestly, it is quite possible that hot summer days have something to do with her holding this fan.



Uchiwa was a model of a fan for this drawing. Uchiwa is a handheld, traditional type of Japanese fan which has a form resembling a paddle. This coolish accessory is usually decorated with various patterns. So I designed a pattern with a ginger cat in the fan's centre, surrounded by forget-me-nots on the blue background.
