Description Sharpy pen, Water colour on Card Stock.

Kisme mythos tells the tale of Psoed, a Goddess of unknown origin and unknown powers. She is the Wife of Kisme, a great serpentine dragon who (according to legend) dreamed all of creation. Unlike Kisme and the other gods, Psoed has never been seen by mortals, and few Gods can claim to have met her either. This means that depictions of her vary wildly from her actual appearance. The popular image is that of a playful blue, green and yellow dragon, similar in figure to Kisme himself, though shorter in length.

In truth, Psoed is the goddess who spawned all creation; when she first awoke she found herself lonely, and her first act was to create Kisme, the dragon. She herself was blind, and did not know what her own form appeared like... so when he was created, she worked from her mind. Kisme, upon his creation, immediately set to work molding the universe in all of its splendor, creating things of great beauty which quickly overshadowed his friend. He created a planet, and Psoed created the beings of that planet, which ultimately came to be known by his name. When Psoed did not yield to Kisme's expectations for the world, he sent her away.

Thank you so much! Unfortunately the line quality is actually really bad on the original, (The sharpy really bleeds) but it was scanned at 700dpi and shrunk.

Thank you very much! This was scanned at 700 DPI, so most of the neatness is from shrinking down. XD

Fff, thank you Akky! I am trying to get some of these things out there so I can remember them later, but I am slovenly and struggle to put my plots into coherent words.

@.@ Ooooh, the smoothness of the colors and the way they blend together makes me think of the way rocks in a river looks when the sun shines through, or when light reflects off water and makes the weird deigns on a wall.

Thanks! I was unsure when I started adding the yellows, but in the end they served me well.

And thank you! I am trying to get more believable anatomy in my art, and am so glad you like it! :3
