Blue Dragon
Fiiiiiiinally finished. A companion piece to this one I did a year and a half ago:
I decided the other day that there was a distinct lack of blue paintings in my folio! Had to rectify the situation.
He is approx 30cm square, watercolour/pastel etc on canvas.


He has shiny silver leaf on his spikes too.

Blue Dragon belongs to the following groups:
Dragon's Fire and The Populous CastAvailable for sale as Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

Sort of a 3-d url-burl, I may have misspelled, snake eating it’s own tail. I dig it.

Url-burl? What is this curious beast.
Firedrake in reply to salsbells69’s comment, 4 months ago
Not sure! Maybe it makes him feel secure….:)
Firedrake in reply to Damian’s comment, 4 months ago
Yes…these beasts are 100 points!

Thanks everyone for the nice feedback. I nearly poked a hole through it at one point, so I wouldn’t have to make a decision on whether to finish it! Glad I didn’t wreck it now :)

she is a beautiful colour. yes, i’ve decided it’s a girl.. but i guess you do have the final say ;-)

‘I’ll get back to you, I’m all tied up at the moment’. I always like your dragons – they look less threatening than the real ones (like my mother-in-law). Looks like he’s headed for the barbecue; does he supply his own fire?
Peter Coleman, 4 months ago
excellent work, blue is always good
you could pick your teeth with those little spikes after you BBQ it

Incredibly beautiful shades of blue Firedrake. Yes, it’s already been said but I’m saying it again.
Firedrake in reply to Brian Towers’s comment, 4 months ago
Supply his own fire…hahaaha
I think this one may be a colddrake rather than a firedrake :)
Firedrake in reply to Peter Coleman’s comment, 4 months ago
And then put your marshmallows on them!
Firedrake in reply to Liesl Yvette Wilson’s comment, 4 months ago
Don’t be sad! He could just be sleeping :)

I love this picture it makes me want to undo the string and find out what happens. I’m sure he would probably eat my fingers!
Firedrake in reply to Vanella Mead’s comment, 3 months ago
Yes, he could be rather ungrateful!

Beautiful! I’m loving all of your enigmatic beasties and beakfaces, but the rich color really makes this one stand out! I’d hate to meet whoever it is who’s been tying these guys up…

That is clearly the best way to bind them… if they manage to snort out anything hot they’re going to burn something tender!
Excellent piece!
Firedrake in reply to BlueKnot’s comment, 1 day ago
Haha yeah – and I don’t think he can regrow his tail :)
