From wikipedia: "Utagawa Kuniyoshi (Japanese: 歌川国芳) (1797-1861) was one of the last great masters of the Japanese ukiyo-e style of woodblock prints and painting and belonged to the Utagawa school."
Hiroshi Hirakawa, Skull Woman blue around the eyes, hands and feet are typically an indication of a person dying from either an illness or blood loss in many forms of Japanese art and media. I have seen this same blue, with paler skin to indicate a ghost that may have died from similar causes.
樹海
A Japanese Tengu ("heavenly dog"). Buddhism long held that the tengu were disruptive demons and harbingers of war. Their image gradually softened, however, into one of protective, if still dangerous, spirits of the mountains and forests. Tengu are associated with the ascetic practice known as Shugendō, and they are usually depicted in the distinctive garb of its followers, the yamabushi. - wiki
