PLEASE DO NOT USE ANY OF MY DRAWINGS AS A REFERENCE WITHOUT MY WRITTEN PERMISSION!!!!


This time I decided to do an illustration for a haiku poem of the famous haiku writer Issa.

Translation:
Cherry blossoms
resident of this world 
a short time
(please read the characters on the picture from right to the left, and top down, thanks :3)

I like that this poem shows us the vulnerability and the short duration of our lives. Like a cherry blossom Sir Daniel died in his prime of life. 
I know that Sir dan looks a bit strange in that prospective, but I wanted it to look like that because of the ukiyo-e style. it says the correct representation does not matter, it's more important to show the "soul" of the figure.

Thanks for :+fav:ing! </b>
