The Dragon
Graphite on paper
by special request |
This one is for my children who think I am a "boring artist". "You already have the skills, mom, just apply them to something cool!" So, today I am reaching WAY outside of myself to render this imaginary creature. I pulled out drawing paper - which I haven't used for decades, not wanting to use my bristol. My intention was to just try to figure out what I wanted as I sketched. As I worked, I added more depth, trying to give realism to un unrealistic subject. Just as I do with portraits, I started with the eyes. If I couldn't make eyes I was happy with, I would have left the rest undone. I feel like this drawing is crazy, and am shaking my head as I post it. But alas, I will not have time to do another. Artwork 248 in as many days, and
Day 8 of the painting challenge.
