How do you draw what can’t be seen?

Theri There from 2006-01-02. Notes: A behind-the-scenes look at how I first started planning Theri There. This sketch deals with the key challenge of how to show that someone is an otherkin. After all, their physical appearance can look entirely unlike how they describe their otherkin self. At the time, I’d seen very few attempts at conveying this dichotomy in art. In this sketch, I came up with as many ideas for it as I possibly could. I ended up using some of those ideas in Theri There. If some of these ideas might suit your own otherkin portraiture, please feel free to try them out, too!

Rated G. Otherkin are real people who identify as nonhuman. They say "I'm an elf," and they don't mean a role-playing character. Started in 2005.
