SciFi and Fantasy Art: Fire of Ages

I'm proud of this piece; it's one of those ones that I let sit around for a year, untouched, before I returned and just finished it.  I had trouble coming up with a background once I drew the dragon.  But a quick look through one of my fossil reference pamphlets solved that problem.  I included crumbling ammonite shells and patterns of fossil palm tree bark and leaves, among other things.   

I accomplished this one with watercolor and colored pencils.

*Whine* I agree with anonymous and A. Wilson... I could NEVER in a thousand years get watercolors to do something like this. Mine always look like something done by a 5-year-old! Wahhh!!

Okay, I'm fine now. Beautiful colors and pattern, Rachael. The thumbnail doesn't do it justice!

This is far from traditional Elfwood-images. Shapes and colours makes this look nearly surreal. All I can say is wow! I would like to have this kind of painting in my wall if just had own house.
