When I began this painting, I intended to use minimal detail. However, once I started, my OCD set in, and I found myself adding more and more intricacies. Like many of my previous works, this painting became a journey of discovery. I had painted a dragon scene 15 years ago, hoping my experience would make this piece go smoother. That was wishful thinking. Despite my initial plans, I couldn't resist adding details, making the process both challenging and enjoyable.
A few years ago, I wrote a short novella about a dragon and wanted to illustrate it, but my drawing skills were worse than those of a pre-K child. Only recently have I begun incorporating a more illustrative style into my projects. This painting was made for my eldest grandson, who loves reading about the many adventures of dragons.
