At some point, have you ever wished to have a giant, fluffy kitty? A giant furry pet that you can snuggle with during chilly nights, that is something we could only dream of. The idea of having enormous yet adorable pets can only exist in fantasy. But a Japanese artist is giving us a taste of how life would be if it becomes a reality. Monokubo, a creative illustrator from Japan, brings our fantasy to life through her amazing digital paintings. Her illustrations depict a life where gentle giant animals share a harmonious relationship with humans. What would happen if our gentle pets suddenly grow bigger than us? Monokubo will show us how our life would be through her paintings.
Friendly giant animals are mostly featured in Studio Ghibli films. Who could forget the amicable giant forest creature in My Neighbor Totoro? And the fierce-looking giant wolf in Princess Mononoke? These adorable characters inspired Monokubo to imagine a life where gentle giant animals exist. The artist’s love for cats is evident through her works because most of her paintings depict gigantic kitties. As a cat owner, she finds fascination in making illustrations of her favorite animal. But she also draws other cuddly animals as well. Some of her works also feature dogs, wolves, bunnies, raccoons, birds, and even penguins. Monokubo depicts all these giant gentle animals as affectionate creatures, willing to serve as a warm cushion to their humans.
