Description This painting was kinda inspired by a indie game I've played a while ago called "Momodora Reverie Under The Moonlight". It's a 2D metroidvania type of game where Kaho, a priestess, travels to a foreign land to stop the spread of some sort of plague that is corrupting the world. Dispite being a 8 bit title with a cute cast of charecters, the atmosphere of the game is incredibly melancholy and dark. The art style and the music, helps convey that feeling too. I mean, just listen to this.

Haunting and beautiful at the same time. I love it! 

The story of the game surprised me. I didn't expect it to drop heavy themes, such as death and hopelessness, over a relatively short experience. But, it was because of this well thought out story, that it made me appreciate the game even more. Combined that with great looking art, a beautiful soundtrack, and you have yourself a recipe for a timeless experience. 

With all that said, another daunting painting is finished.

*This picture was inspired by the imp who loved mushrooms in the game. When Kaho first meets her, she tells her to go away and that she is a stupid girl. It was a bit random, to say the least XD*
