Description

ATC sized illustration for the Kolthainn project. Art pen and watercolor on paper, with various collage elements.

As you can see, Koh is a demon (of the more-cute-than-scary kind), and he's busy lying on the floor doing some magic involving irresponsible handling of fire. (He's good at that...)

The collage materials found on this ATC are:
- Mother-of-pearl chip (I think it's supposed to be used for making jewelry but it sure makes a nice moon as well.)
- Washi tape with stars / constellations
- Washi tape with books
- Washi tape with marble pattern
- Wood veneer (yes, someone really sent me that in the mail, entirely randomly!)
- Silvery contour sticker of a spiderweb (I think this was supposed to be Halloween decoration)
- Tiny rhinestone
- Enamel dot in glittery gold
- Golden nail stickers (they were unlikely to end up on my fingernails - but as macic-y effect thingies they're nice)
- Puffy pentagram sticker (Who produces something like that??? Really, is there a factory somewhere turning out these things? LOL)
- Felt stickers (cats)

Actually, the cat thing is quite funny! I started out with only written character descriptions, and in Koh's case the description included his tendency to make friends with stray cats. The first picture another artist drew of Koh involved a cat, and for some time that was the only visual reference in existence. (Mainly because I threw my own illustrations away.) The next artists then, apparently, took that as a hint that when Koh is in a picture, there have to be cats. Which is obviously untrue (there are quite a lot of Koh scenes in the story that do not involve any cats whatsoever, thankyouverymuch) but kind of fun when done systematically. I actually got these cat stickers specifically so I could make a Koh picture!
