[ Weather Goddess Tenko - 23/02/2002 ]

-- mechanical pencil on japanese inking paper, coloured and finished in PSP --

Tenko is the goddess of Weather from a story written by myself
and Simon Veaney, when we were at school.
Her skin pattern changes as the weather changes, in the picture
she reveals that it is hailing where her attention is set
Though she looks upset, her crying never stops and symbolises
the eternal cycle of the rain system. She is commonly angry
and is one of the most feared and respected gods since no man
or beast may control the weather.
