I just started this new project, to draw the 12 chinese zodiac animals in sum-e. I start with the buffalo:

I already have the tiger, the horse and the cat, that means that I only have 8 left to draw.
Next one is the rat.

This week-end I did again a wolf drawing, the same I made few months ago, which was a bit flat in my opinion. But because drawing the same wolf again was not really that fun, it did another one to make them play together (or fight).
Then a little Photoshop work to put themtogether.

I wanted to draw a dog since a while, but among all the different races it was pretty hard to make a decision. In the end i choosed the dalmatian for it “design” appearance.

Listening to Monique’s wise ideas, i changed a little bit my playing cat drawing to transform it into a climbing cat, and i think it works pretty well on a Tshirt. so playing cat or climbing cat?

AToday and after 3 months that the blog is online, i told myself it would be time to give some explanations about the name ôkami
In japanese it means « wolf » (now you see the connection with the drawing below). It comes from the family name of Monique Wolfe, and we thought it sounds nice.

After the panda, the tiger and the horse, I could not continue making sumi-e without drawing at least a carp.
Those who knows a little bit about japanese culture would have noticed that this fish is omnipresent in japanese traditional arts (such as prints, kakemono, tattoo, sumi-e…). The carps are symbols of strength and perseverance, and they’re supposed to bring good luck.

Some may ask what does that title mean. In japanese that’s how we call this kind of drawing, « sumi » means ink, and « e » means drawing.
