In contrast to the usual costume and make up customs, Kay explores the art of body painting to portray the characters she likes. Kay presents her work in a richer and more colorful artifice that one can hardly recognize that almost everything is pure coloring and not a costume. She calls this cospainting, as she cosplays the character using paint.
