Artist's Comments

Who said I was finished with the "Women of Japanese Horror" series, eh? The fun's just starting, folks!

Here, in all her slithery glory, is Kiyohime (or just "Kiyo"), the spurned wannabe-lover of a certain priest named Anchin.

Kiyohime fell in love with Anchin and offered to share her life with him, only to have him dupe her and leave on a pilgrimage instead. Kiyohime chased after him, only to find a river blocking her path. She transformed into a huge serpent, and followed Anchin across the river and up to Dojoji Temple, where she wrapped herself around the temple bell. Anchin, trapped underneath it, was burned to death when Kiyohime banged her tail against the iron bell and created huge sparks.

Isn't love wonderful? XP

Yes, those are rather dangly-looking boobs she's got; Hope they don't give you nightmares. I wanted to show Kiyohime's casting off of her ever-so-pure human femaleness while transforming into the serpent. Boobs and women kind of go together, y'know?

Pencils, watercolors, and gel pens.

Yay for dangly boobies. :D

I love the details on her hair and the bell; her eyes are also absolutely fantastic.
The mottled look of her tail at the top of the piece is gorgeous, as well.
Excellent job!
