Korean magpie done in sumi-e style.
While Magpies are a bad luck/death symbol in Europe (next to ravens and black cats), in Korean and Chinese folklore are a symbol of good news. Hence in some Minhwa drawings you can spot them next to the Tigers (good luck symbol).
Something to update my portfolio.
