A brand-new Japanese wooden ema (votive plaque), clean and pristine, with a fresh, light wood texture, displayed at a Shinto shrine. The ema features an elegant illustration of Zena and a sacred horse, symbolizing the Year of the Horse. Zena is depicted in her iconic base design: short orange bob hair, stylish headphones, cute monkey ears, and a modern shrine maiden outfit with a white kimono top featuring shoulder slits and a short red mini skirt. Beside her stands a calm, noble horse, representing action, forward movement, and good fortune. On the ema, written vertically in bold red Japanese brush calligraphy, is the phrase: 「開運招福」 The vertical lettering is clear and powerful, standing out against the fresh wood, symbolizing blessings being drawn downward into reality. Soft, hand-painted Japanese illustration style, subtle watercolor texture, visible natural wood grain. Serene yet uplifting atmosphere, expressing new beginnings, positive change, and momentum. Japanese aesthetic, anime-style illustration, clean lineart, delicate brush texture, highly detailed, masterpiece quality.
