The Word ‘Koi’ Has Two Meanings
The Japanese word “koi” (鯉) means "carp" - but it’s pronounced the same as the word for "love" (恋) ❤️
That’s why koi often symbolise affection and friendship.

My first offering to the koi gods. This little guy started off as a doodle on patterned paper but then I had to go digital because I couldn't find an adequate white pencil for blending. I'd like for the next one to lean a little more on just ink and lines but we'll see. #illustration #koilove
