Kirby – I get it. It’s like drinking the water overseas.

Emera – a bar for obakemono would be awesome. I’m not sure about the caterpillar. If it did metamorphose, I think the whole creature might change with it.

It reminds me of the lantern hopping on its hand in Spirited Away – I must admit I’d be a little dubious of its intentions if I ever met it while alone on a pathway. However, I can also imagine it sitting, alone and dejected, at a bar for obakemono, which makes me wibbly on its behalf.

Does the caterpillar ever metamorphosize?

Poor Rosie. No one’s going to believe it’s benign.

Wow, that’s my favorite one so far, that thing is horrifying!

Kirby – But you write about slayer angels and gruesome deaths!

But they only live in my head, so I kind of have to be inured to them. What lives in other people’s heads is infinitely scarier!

Not only dogs — feed the dead of all species to hungry gardens and see what breeds!

“I was wondering how it came to exist, and I thought it might have happened when a moth was trapped in a lantern left in a rose bed where a dog was buried…”

Sounds like an endangered species. Buy more lanterns, bury more dogs in rose gardens and save the Rosehead!

I draw like her — sometimes, anyway

I still have to finish Sebastian. I’m procrastinating about the hand.

Sometimes I wonder if you draw like Beth, or Beth draws like you.

I very much liked your St Sebastian, btw.

Laurie – it was no doubt inspired by obakemono. I was wondering how it came to exist, and I thought it might have happened when a moth was trapped in a lantern left in a rose bed where a dog was buried…

Tori – the rose reconciled with the worm, I never thought of that! I want to draw the other creatures – just need to think of them.

D – It can defend itself, and it might be treacherous if it has a reason to be.

Charles – thanks! I always like it when the drawing bug bites.
