Enelya took it, curiously, "What's in it?" she asked, slowly sipping, testing it out. She liked it, but wanted to play with him first.
"My specially brewed tea."
"Here!... oh?" she tried to grab at it but it was just a piece of paper. She looked at it curiously. "Now what kind of trick are you trying to play on me here?" she laughed, picking up the sketchbook. "Would you show me your work?" She grinned, jestering him to come and give explainations to them all. She was very interested.
Kotah laughed. "It's simple, really. Just very tedious. Shadows arn't black. Atleast, not pitch black like the color they give you with pencils or crayons. Instead, mix black with various opposing tones and it makes the drawing pop out of the picture. Also, when people look at something from the corner of their eye, it's not a solid form, so if you use a very subtle form of pointalism... it tricks the eye." He smiled. "A friend of mine taught me that. Well, he was a teacher, too."
He plucked the sketchpad from her hands with a grin. "Everything else is classified." He laughed. "Sorry~."
