In medieval manuscripts, dragons were often drawn not just as creatures—but as letters themselves. Among the most frequently illustrated animals of the time, dragons symbolized “evil” in Christian contexts, but also embodied power, chaos, protection, and wisdom.🐉❤️
⠀
In this piece, the letter D is the dragon. Its long, twisting body forms the shape of the letter, complete with birdlike wings and a tail woven into a Celtic knot—a motif that symbolized eternity and interconnection, often seen in medieval manuscript decoration.
⠀
Part of my ongoing “Letter & Bestiary” series. Welcome to a world where letters and beasts become one.

I layer different tones and soften the edges with a wet brush to create a smooth gradient.
It’s a technique once used in medieval manuscripts to bring depth and richness to miniatures.

So I cut the gold leaf kind of to size. Not with surgical precision—just enough to avoid wasting too much.
In this timelapse, you’ll see me placing one tiny piece after another, trying to make the most of every scrap.
It’s slow, a bit fiddly, and very shiny.
No gold was intentionally wasted in the making of this video.

Yes, really. Hear me out.
In my Bestiary & Letter series, each letter usually matches an animal or word starting with that letter. But X? There are no good animals. No good medieval words. I gave up.
So I did what any medieval-minded artist would do:
I chose a snail. Because I love snails.
Now I need your help:
👉 Can you suggest a title for this illustration?
The only rule is — it must contain the letter X. Any language is welcome: French, English, Latin, Japanese…
Drop your ideas in the comments — your title might become official.
Merci, thanks, ありがとう、gratias! 📜🐌

‘Amor Aere Perennior’ Tokyo, 2024 - Commissioned work
Size: A4
Vellum
24kt Japanese gold
Gouache painting
This piece was created to celebrate the 10th wedding anniversary of a couple, both doctors. The theme of the painting (a medieval royal wedding), the overall style (15th century), and the Latin phrase about love were specified by the clients. Additionally, as doctors, they requested medieval medical characters in the margins, their two beloved cats, and an original coat of arms. Bringing all these elements together harmoniously in one piece was challenging, but also a joyful process. I believe it has become a truly personalized and special work. I am delighted if my artwork can contribute to their love enduring longer than bronze.

"The Assumption of the Virgin in the arms of Christ"
Tokyo, 2024 commission work
Size: A5
Goat parchment
24kt japanese gold
Gouache painting
This piece draws inspiration from the composition of the artwork of the same name created by the Master of Cesi in 14th century Italy. (Reference to the second image) While there are numerous renditions of this theme, the Master of Cesi’s depiction is quite rare, portraying Christ welcoming his mother into heaven after the end of her earthly life with a tender embrace. The client felt a strong emotional connection to this depiction of maternal love and commissioned me to create a piece with the same composition.
As the original artwork followed the distinctive style of 14th century Italian altarpieces, I adapted it to the style of French illuminated manuscripts from the same period. Particularly regarding the attire, this era in France saw the frequent use of a blue pigment called pastel, hence I chose pastel blue for the Virgin Mary's robe, in accordance with the customs of the time. However, I retained the motif pattern of the Virgin Mary's clothing from the original artwork. I have never seen this motif elsewhere, and I believe it may hold a special significance. If any of my knowledgeable followers happen to know the meaning behind this pattern, please do share.

An illuminated manuscript just for you!
“Saint Michael and the Devil” Tokyo, 2022 commission work
Size: A4
Goat parchment
24kt japanese gold
Gouache painting
For this piece, I hesitated a lot regarding the armor and the shield of Saint Michael and finally decided to take a medieval model as a reference. It’s a bit of a fantasy armor but it is a model of a real medieval manuscript.
Medieval painters had to draw many things based on their imagination. Because there were no photographic reference like today, It might be different from reality, but their power of imagination produced expressions that surpassed reality. I have always highly regarded medieval painter’s imagination.
