Tirtiris

Character design for July 2020 CDC, with the theme "Fairies Kingdom".
"Tirtiris: Ilokano, Philippines. They are little people smaller than a person’s hand. Gold teeth, long noses, light skin, shimmering silk clothing embroidered with gold threads. They live in the bagbagotot bush and come out at night to make merry. People who hurt them will have sore eyes or rashes; for this reason, people should be careful when throwing things out of windows, and call “Go away, go away” to warn any tirtiris nearby."
