Kuromame

Earlier this year I was listening to this episode of Uncanny Japan. https://www.uncannyjapan.com/episode-45-auspicious-cuisine-osechi-ryori/

I fell in love with the word kuro mame, it sounded so freaking cool! Almost immediately sketched a version of this. Its simplicity and silliness just made me happy. Today I decided after much procrastination to turn it into something.
