Japanese Fairy with Yokobue Flute

Faeries are so popular nowadays, they're practically everywhere. But I noticed that they all look more or less the same, employing the same basic concept and nationality. What would its Japanese brethren look like, I wondered? And what if for once it wasn't a girl?
Thus I was inspired with the idea for this image. ^_^

Thank you GermanCityGirl and cosmosue for the Daily Deviation feature! And thank you all for your wonderful comments. :thanks:

I'll try to reply to each one as time permits, and here are some answers to the recurrent questions: This image was drawn & inked on paper, then colored in Photoshop. The paper texture was created in PS as well. The whole thing took about a week because I was in a rush for an art show. Usually I like to take my sweet time. LOL :D

Thanks cousins!

This looks so real. Like it was done on Chinese rice paper or something. Looks really good, I'm gonna have to check out your gallery now.

Its a very beautiful picture and your concept worked out very well. He's very beautiful, and must be quite delicate to sit on a branch like that.

Hm, I never thought of drawing Benten. Maybe when I get into another 'japanese' mood swing, I'll give it a try. :) Thank you for all the nice comments!
