This is a painting I did for my A'levels in Art. It almost lost me my grade as the examiners thought it was not an original piece of work and was copied from some album cover! The wings were air-brushed to give a transparent texture and the rest was painted with inks. I was always pleased with the eyes that follow you all around the room. Painted in 1988. Coloured inks on paper.

I cannot believe no one has commented on this great piece of artwork. I agree with you, that the eyes are amazing on this little guy. I love the airbrushed effect on the wings! You definitly have a talent with these mediums! I hope to see a lot more of you in the future.

While I agree with Tom that this is too good a painting to have so few comments, his spam within his comment is way uncool *b1tch-slaps tom*

Anyhoo, back to the painting, I love the texture of the piece, it looks like a great deal of effort was put into it, the eyes are a little creepy, but it fits. Kudos, and keep it up

Wow!!! I painted a lot of dragons too, but those were looking like old dogs. The eyes fits perfect with this little dragon and I really must say that you have to go on, I mean, this is great artwork, isn't it?
Greetings,

Wow! I can't believe you haven't had thousands of comments. I wish I could draw/paint/whateva like that. This dragon is brill, but the face is a little harpy/Meducsa (did I spell that right?) like. Maybe a cuter dragon is in store? It doesn't matter, just keep up the good work!
