Year of the Snake 2025 (Digital Portrait)

Happy Year of the Snake 2025, everybody!

This year celebrates the Wood Snake as in the Chinese Zodiac symbolizes wisdom, transformation, adaptability. Snakes in Chinese culture are often seen as enigmatic, graceful, and intuitive beings that shed their skin as a sign of renewal and rebirth. The scaleless corn snake, of which I drew on Procreate, with its smooth, sleek form, embodies this symbolism even more vividly. Its lack of scales can be seen as a metaphor for vulnerability leading to beauty and strength, much like how personal growth comes through transformation.

In essence, just as the Wood Snake year encourages people like you guys to evolve, adapt, and find beauty in transformation, the scaleless snake serves as a living symbol of this process.

Have a wonderful day and wonderful Lunar New Year, especially those who celebrate the holiday. I’m looking forward to see the unexpected transformations in my life this year including my artworks.
