7 Gods of Happiness



Today I finished Ebisu, my 3rd God in the set of 7 Gods of Happiness. He is pure hearted and contented with a simple life, always lucky and happy.
To his right is Hotei, very open-minded, an optimist and always happy.
The lady is Benten the only woman in the group. She represents art, literature, music and eloquence and my favorite. The tallest figure is about 8 inches tall.
I was introduced to these when my friend Eileen showed me a set her dad gave her when she was a little girl.

Ebisu


This is a sketch of Ebisu, the god of fishermen and good fortune. I have been sketching him in preparation for my 3rd paper mache God of Happiness.
He was sketched with marker in a moleskine cahier.
