Artist's Comments

Another watercolor and pen piece, a bit more elaborate this time. It's 12 x 16, took me about three days of working off and on. Just your typical dragony type, wrapped in beads, with a frog. (Of course there's a frog.) Pet? Lunch? Buddy? Your guess is as good as mine...

The scanner's reproductions aren't quite true--the purples are too saturated, the cyans not enough, and there's a limit to the fixes I can do in Photoshop, given that it's simply not picking up subtle hue changes. But still, not a bad reproduction. My biggest problem is that being mostly digital, I keep screaming "If you were pixels, you'd be dry by now!!"

omfg why does this not have more comments? Ink and watercolor are hard media and this is so good! The colors are soft and blended very well and it looks so pretty. ._.

Ahhh his frills are so neat, as are his markings...the amount of beads and things are perfect, they don't distract but they also add just enough detail. I also like the way you have elements of the character going off the edge of the paper, instead of being directly centered.
