Artist's Comments
I started this painting two years ago. It took me a full year to paint, largely because I worked on it off and on--though the dragon alone took me two weeks, ten hours a day, to complete. It's the largest painting I've ever done, most ambitious. 20x30 inches, watercolor on illustration board.
It took me another year to get it scanned--my poor computer just chugs on the file. It's 1 gig, only at 600 dpi. The real problem with working this long on a painting, is that my skills have grown so much since I drew this. Now, when I look at it, all I see is all that's wrong with it. Her wonky anatomy, dragon's body too short, etc. I've started on my next 20x30, I hope that it will be better! In its frame, this sucker is taller than my son! I hope to send it to DragonCon 2006. Till then, she's on ebay. Closeups are there! [link] |

 reports, 1d 21h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them, you're a mile ahead and you have their shoes.
