Eerie modern yukata/kimono by Furifu, depicting blooming manjushage (better known as higanbana/red spider lily) and what is described as a cute tokage (lizard).
Higanbana are linked to death imagery, because of buddhist higan equinoctial week (where Buddhist services are held and people go clean tombs), and the fact people once believed they bloomed on Sanzu river's shores.
I like to believe the little lizard could actually be a luck bringing yamori (gecko) thwarting the dark undertones - unless we agree on a more ominous imori yokai ;)?

Drawing Kiruko again put me in the mood to rethink a bunch of aspects of her design, and I'm super happy with how she turned out. Gonna leave the original up for comparison's sake

In the heart of Kyoto's Gion district, a scene unfolds like poetry in motion. I stumbled upon a captivating sight that's hard to forget: a beautiful woman in a crimson kimono stands out, navigating the streets with a grace that echoes through the ages.
Kyoto [ 京都], Gion [祇園]

A very rough Sesshomaru in a woman's kimono. Well he was always wearing a furisode so I just threw in an obi on it. I may fix this up or not.
