Just went through your new stuff there Mischa and it was even better than last time. Your art has inspired me to try something I gave up a long time ago. I'm gonna attempt to draw a dragon again. Notice I said again, I used to try and draw dragons but they always turned out looking like giraffes or antelope with long necks. I threw my pencil out the window and I've never tried to draw a dragon again. Until you came along. Your dragons are so impressive and beautiful that you've inspired me to givr it another shot. Thank you.

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "I've never gotten a comment so nice, thank you so much for it, it just made the whole day lighter. 1*looks slightly guilty*I well... sorta drew something based on your art to, it will take it awhile to get up here but if you go to my deviant page you'll see it, just a minor inspiration but it gave me something else to practice on lol.My deviant is hereVhttp://straga.deviantart.com/ It's called BullGod....I can't wait to see your dragon when you get it up! I'm sure it will be awesome!I'll be lurking your gallery waiting for it to be up, like I haven't been already lol."

You may not need this but here goes... you have talent and skill. It just looks like you need the sometimes dreaded "p-word", practice. If you love art as much as it appears, that is the kind of "homework" you will enjoy. Try new things in your work, new themes, styles ect. add some color and just keep at it. You will improve. I wish you much success and happiness, C

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "I'll except that, I know I need practice, every artist needs practice as no one can make anything perfect, even Dali had his hang-ups, lol.Thank you for the honesty though, it is much apprectiated, I am not in the least offened by your words."

Begginer??? If you are a begginer then im a... A what? A never starter? Negative begginer? Well, whatever the case, your work is wonderful. The detail is amazing. I would loose my mind, or my hand, trying to do all of it! Its amazing. Have you considered coloring? Since the detail is so great i dont know if it would hurt the picture or not, either way, your work is fantastic! I hope to see updates soon!

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "I tried colouring once, it didn't turn out the way I had planned so I went back to grey scale because I was used to it, I know it's a lazy excuse but I'm a semi-lazy person lol.Thank you very much for your comment. 2P.S. I looked at your gallery, it's incredible to me that anyone could have the patience to do what you do lol, you must be very talented to get anything in windows paint to come out looking as good as your art does."

Hi Mischa! Yup it's me again. I just came by to take another look at your dragons again. I also had a few questions if you don't mind. When you draw one of your dragons do you already have a concept or do create as you go? And when you do start drawing do you start with the head or the body when you begin to dsetail?

I wouldn't be asking if I didn't think your dragons were dynamicly awesome. Anyways its always a pleasure to see your work and the dragon I'm working on is still coming along. If you wan't I'll let you know when I finish and post it. Thanks again Mischa.

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "I don't mind at all. 2Most of the time they just come to me as I am drawing on them, I will stare at my paper for a few minute to try and picture the basic outline on it and then follow that as closely as possible, however if I make a change and find I like it better than the original outline I'll leave it.The only exception would be if I dreamed of the dragon previously, (which I do alot) and then I just follow the design in the dream.The best way to draw a creature is to just let go of what you have learned on what things should look like and let your imagination create them.That's what's so fun about it! 12I am very much looking forward to seeing your sketch when it is finished, I know you'll do a great job on it."

Yours are some of the most original dragons i've seen anywhere!!! Fantastic !!! I can't wait to see more. There are a couple of humble dragons on my site... I would love to hear your comments. Matt

The style of line drawing you use in several pictures has an old fashion feel to it, like something you might envision on the walls of a kings court. I really like that. Other pictures carry a different flavor but are equally as enchanting. this is a very good gallery, Let me know if you post more as it would be interesting to see what other creations talent can summon.

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "Thank you very much, I have been working very hard on each of them, lately optimizing more than sketching, lol.I visited your gallery and I really love what you had in there, I am honoured to have yet another talented artist comment on my works."

Hi Mischa, the dragon you inspired me to draw is almost done and will be in queue as soon as my current updates in queue is done. This one seems to be taking extraordinarly long. I'm hoping you like it as I've worked several sleepless nights on it. Just keep in mind though that I've never realy been good at dragons and it may not be nearly as good as one of yours but I'm learning.

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "I will be over night and day until it is up, I truly cannot wait to see it!I know from the start that you have put your best attempts into making it awe inspiring and I have no doubt what-so-ever that you will suceed in creating a masterpeice yet again."

You draw lovely dragons, they look like they could be detailed too but at that size you can't tell. Its a pity they aren't a little larger and its very dissapointing that you never provide a description to give them a bit of character since they have no colour to them. They are beautiful but they just seem a bit flat and lifeless without colour or description.

:-) Mischa Goodman replies: "Hello Kim,First thank you for the compliments on my work, I rarely have time to sketch now but when I do I put as much effort into the piece as I can so it's always rewarding to have someone like it. 2To answer your theory of colors, descriptions and size, I always draw in graphite, I do black and white sketches because I am no good at blending colors together, believe me if I did it would only make the dragons worse, also I think because so many other artists use color the style I use makes mine a little more unique, or at least it does to me, I never judge anothers art before I see it.My art has no descriptions because it does not come from anything someone else has already made up, it's completely original and even if that makes it look a little 'flat' it suits me, I draw patterns, not illustrations.Also the sizes of each work is just to make it easier and faster on the uploading time, for one I'm on dial up so it takes forever to upload a picture here and I don't have that much time online these days, and for two, these represent more a thumbnail view for this gallery, as I stated above if you like my work and would like to see larger and more full scale versions of it, than visit my other gallery in my links bar. 12 By the way, I looked at your gallery and I must say you are a very inspiring and inventive artist, I hope to see more of your works soon. 2"
