"Unsure of how to make a debut, the artist quickly drew a flower and hid away before anyone could notice. If anyone noticed, of course."

Hana (はな) means "flower" in Japanese. At the same time, it can also mean "nose." Hanasu (はなす) is "to speak."
Legend has it that the reason sakura blossoms (cherry blossoms) are red is due to the trees absorbing the blood of people supposedly buried under them.
I really like the composition of this, how the edges of the drawing aren't the usual square but "diamond" shaped, and then placed in a brass handle, it's really clever ovo
And the character is cute
And holy-... I didn't know about the legend of sakura trees absorbing the blood :U Beautiful trees with macabre secret.
