Work Progressing

I've been doodling dragon sketches, working up towards a full piece that I want to create for my sons' room. Here's a diving dragon in it's early state.

My scanner has a real problem on capturing pencil, otherwise I would show some of the others. I worked on an ACEO version of this. Originally the background was sky blue but the dragon was lost. So I repainted it black and added puffs of white 'dragon breath' which changed the dynamic of the painting.

BTW, I had to change the description on this in my listing as google does not allow the word 'smoke' for uploading to google base. The completed ACEO is titled Night Dive - check it out! Happy 4th of July!!!

Artistic Roots

Started painting again after years off.  I'm working in acrylics rather than the oils I trained in.  And, working in a teeny tiny scale, which is very different for me.

I've already painted several ACEO's, what a great size!  I've purchased a few and just love owning different styles of original artwork.  I also have a bunch of cute wooden pendants, I'm just trying to figure out whether I will frame them in copper or add an annraku bail.

If you once did something you loved, now is a great time to start again!  Happy Holidays everyone! Dee
