Year of the Water Dragon

The Dragon is a creature of myth and legend. A symbol of good fortune and sign of intense power, the Oriental Dragon is regarded as a divine beast - the reverse of the malicious monster that Westerners felt necessary to find and slay. In Eastern philosophy, the Dragon is said to be a deliverer of good fortune and a master of authority.  Fifth in the cycle, Dragon Years follow the Rabbit and recur every twelfth year.This year is the year of the water dragon.

Bigger and Better Things

finally after many people asking me to do bigger paintings I did it! My largest painting to date. 90cm x 120cm. Quite impressive for me actually. Most of my paintings have been quite small so this was a pretty huge undertaking for me. As per usual there was no planning involved. I purchased the canvas, took out my black Posca and went for it. Once drawn I then spent every night painting until it was done. This painting and the many similar that I have done are the forests or jungles of my imagination. No, you won't find these creatures all together in reality but you do in my mind and therefore you do on my canvases. Just like all of my paintings, I am happy that I have finished it and hopefully it has sold already but it's time to move on to the next. Selling my paintings enables me to buy materials to keep going and this is what I am going to do.
