Some of my brushstrokes happened to look like the head of a snake with its mouth open, so I added details like the nostrils and made the outline sharper. In Japan, white snakes are said to be messengers of the gods, so it felt like a sign that good luck was coming. I painted it hoping that something good would happen.
