Tsuiraku, a bunny of ambiguous species. Is he a hare? Is he a rabbit? No one knows for sure. Well, except that in this illustration, he's more based on a hare. A hare wielding a very large skillet. So beware. :3

The style this drawing was done in has been floating around in my head for almost a year (maybe even years). It has been a challenge to actually put it on paper. I am quite happy to say, this is the closest I've come so far to integrating a knot-work feel into a figure that actually has a sense of form. I hope to blur the lines further (figuratively and literally) as this style develops.

Please, please, I'd love feedback! :3

This character, Tsuiraku (aka, Tsu), belongs to me. Do not steal him, thank you. :)

A tattoo-related side-note:
This piece is the closest online example of the tattoos I design (though they are usually filled with more intricate detail). My tattoo designs are generally very personal in nature, specific to the individual they are intended for. To protect the exclusivity an originality of such designs, I do not display them publicly. (Even if I really, really want to show off my skills, lol.)
