Black and white ink drawing of a man-eating Yeongno. It has a masked face resembling an anteater and is playing a willow flute. It also wears a traditional gat hat . It's body is serpent like and covered in fine fabric with some scale patterns. From the fold of the fabric several human arms sprout, appearing to be trying to flee or plead.
For some reason, I think a lot about the Yeongno, a figure of the traditional Korean Talchum masked dance. It has to eat 100 rich and greedy people to regain its celestial form and return to heaven. #sketchbook #mythology #folklorecreature
