    Default baku

    This is my picture of the BAKU:

    Baku (獏 or 貘) are Japanese supernatural beings that devour dreams and nightmares. They have a long history in Japanese folklore and art.

    The Japanese term baku has two current meanings, referring to both the traditional dream-devouring creature and to the zoological tapir (e.g., the Malaysian tapir)

    The tapir is one of my all time favourite animals. What a lovely picture.

    That should be on my wall.... it's actually something you see in movies. And then you go and buy it because it's that good.
    Creativity is certainly about not being constrained by rules or accepting the restrictions that society places on us. Of course the more people break the rules, the more likely they are to be perceived as ‘mentally ill’

    It's a lovely drawing. I like psychedelic dreamy stuff.

    Ok Myrna, that was very educational. But however your comment had failed to acknowledge his excellent work in depicting the animal. Which is what I believe your next post was.

    I couldn't really tell it was Baku if it wasn't for the beard. What's with the creature?
