New Work Not Published: Tsathoggua!
Recently, one of the podcasts I enjoy, "The Double Shadow", ran a contest in which they asked listeners to submit artistic interpretations of the fictional deity Tsathoggua, created by Clark Ashton Smith. Tsathoggua is described as:
"He was very squat and pot-bellied, his head was more like a monstrous
toad than a deity, and his whole body was covered with an imitation of
short fur, giving somehow a vague sensation of both the bat and the sloth. His sleepy lids were half-lowered over his globular eyes; and the tip of a queer tongue issued from his fat mouth."
Below is my own entry for that contest, showing the frog-like on himself, squatting above a basin of Formless Spawn in his dwelling. The rest of the entries for this contest can be seen here, but for some reason (likely just overlooked) they did not include mine in the slideshow, so I'm posting it here for your...enjoyment?
