Disguises by Emma Kidd

A humanoid character (named Saru Kuma from the Kabuki Style of makeup he is generally alluded to having, meaning "brave man of yore") meets a selection of yokai, some real, some not, all disguised.
As the piece is large the framer chose a perspex front instead of glass so it wasn't too heavy.

Artwork Description

Gouache on paper, ready to hang.

Signed on the back.

This artwork comes with an external frame

A painting that was a part of a series where a particular character (the one in the detailed photo) met and interacted with youkai (or ghosts) or people pretending to be so. I am influenced by the Hyakki Yagyo ("Night Parade of One Hundred Demons") depicting strange and unbound spirits all parading together. It comes with my own little twist.
It is a light painting with the whiteness dominating the transparent nature of a lot of my characters.

All art by Emma Kidd

Two bird headed creatures with trees growing instead of feathers or hair, crawl over the top of each other. One seems to be turning into a plant. One is tickling, or trying to tickle a creature on the left, while two almost human beings stand on it's back.

A group of odd characters, animals and shapeshifters, perhaps some in masks altogether interacting.

Two tanuki (Japanese Raccoon Dogs) stand on two legs to dance together

Creatures clamber together. Maybe to run away, to confront to help each other.
