I drew this with the motif of the torii gate of a famous shrine in Hiroshima. It's painted with watercolors on Mermaid paper. From the name "Mermaid paper," I imagined a mermaid, and created a picture of the original character, Lala the mermaid, and her sea slug friend, Rele, encountering local specialties and scenery after getting lost in the Seto Inland Sea. Each piece is unique and one-of-a-kind. The big vermilion color, what is it? [Torii gate] A red gate on the sea. When the tide goes out, humans can go near it. Rele and Lala seem to have passed through it when the tide was high.
