Follow the pleasure

The divine pleasure, the blind pleasure, the destructive pleasure, the carnal pleasure, the pleasure of punishment, the pleasure of the fallen, the inconsistent pleasure, the pleasure of the mind, the pleasure in your lips, the pleasure in your suffering, the pleasure of the souls, the pleasure of the caresses, the pleasure of ghosts, the pleasure of being unique, the pleasure of being part of everything, the pleasure of the breeze, the pleasure of a song, the pleasure of a knife, the pleasure of color on canvas, the pleasure of ink on skin, follow me in this pleasure.

Because this is the pleasure that Raku offers you, the Oni that today invites you to be one with her and give you the pleasure that your soul desires, she knows everything about you, and knows what your desires are, let me guide you to her and accompany me to see how her pleasure was painted.

🔰Process🔰

-Step 1:

As usual, I started the illustration by sketching Raku, which yes, literally her name means "pleasure", that's why I have placed her in front of the camera calling you subtly with her hand, while her dark sclera eyes examine your soul to discover what is the greatest pleasure you wish to obtain.

-Step 2:

I have used a color palette that mixes warm and cold tones, but focusing mostly on the color red, as it represents passion, but also blood, two elements very rooted in pleasure, plus gold, representing the riches that bring satisfaction and always want to have more and more.

-Step 3:

Raku's face until now was very rough, so I spent a lot of time to soften her features and give her a mixed expression, what you would expect when looking at a face that invites you to give you everything, but without giving details if this will be a good thing or the worst mistake of your life, after all this is a beautiful lady who has horns and eyes filled with black.

-Step 4:

Almost everything in this illustration has a meaning, and tattoos would not be the exception, that is why on his arm I have drawn a snake hidden to the naked eye, something that is there but if you divert your attention to the right you will forget it. I have also added a pattern of shapes on the chest, something that has no apparent meaning, but that takes you to the heart of Raku and a waning moon to represent your life that will melt with the night.

-Step 5:

To extend the mysticism in the illustration, I added in the background a torii door, which symbolizes the main door to the spiritual world and marks the separation of sacred and profane space, you leave behind your body and your life to enter the mysteries of pleasure.
