'It Takes a Village' - Fall Colors
This is a special autumn variant of my 'It Takes a Village' print. Fall is my favorite season, and I personally wanted this to hand on my own wall. And then I thought, why not let everybody else have a chance to get one too?
There's something to be said for a game's ability to offer sanctuary in difficult times. Growing up I would often return to certain games, simply because I loved the feeling I got when I visited those worlds. Whether I was enduring some major stress in my life, or just having a bad day, I always felt better after just an hour in those safe virtual spaces.
This design is pretty crowded with characters, but I wanted to include as many of my favorites as possible. The little captions read:
ぼんやり鹿 Idle Deer
ちょぼの犬 Musician Dog
大人の狼 Mature Wolf
こわい狼 Grumpy Wolf
おっちょこちょいの犬 Clumsy Dog
せわやき少年 Helpful Boy
やさしい子ぐま Kind Bear
きさくな鹿 Friendly Deer
たぬきあきんど Tanuki Merchant
きざなりす Snooty Squirrel
むかつくもぐら Angry Mole
NOTE - You can choose between two paper types for your print:
1) Handmade Japanese Paper: Created by the Kikuchi Studio in Ehime Japan, this paper features a lovely mulberry texture and rough deckled edges. The overall effect makes our giclée prints look like real historical Japanese prints. I'm very proud of these!
2) Western Paper: This is a high quality 80 lb cover paper, similar to hot press watercolor paper. My art prints look stunning on its smooth, matte finish. This is the paper I usually bring to conventions, so if you have purchased art from me at a live event, you probably have this paper style.
Every print is signed by the artist.
Measures 12x17 inches.
This print looks great in three standard 16 x 20 frames (US, Canada) or 40 x 50 cm (everywhere else).
