I drew this from the tip of my head. It's my very first Unicorn and Fairy Dragon. I've drawn so much over the year of my life and I finally at the age of 21 to draw my first Unicorn and Fairy Dragon? It's just amazing and wild at the same time. Done in 2H Designer pencil, then Prismacolor pencils; with French Conte pastels. (Mind you, the Conte pastels are very expesive, but worth to use) 9/10/01

That is an awesome pic and i hope u continue drawing that kind of thing also that was one tiny dragon

:-) Tara B. Ball replies: "I will hopefully be drawing like this again someday, just have to be in the mood. The dragon was a bit bigger for the original size. My scanner just doesn't work very well some times."

The little fairy dragon is soooo cute! I love the wings on it. And the horse is kind of funny cause i've never seen a hourse with its head in that position. But i like it. =)

:-) Tara B. Ball replies: "Yeah, it is kinda odd looking, but that was off the top of my head, not bad though I'd say."

cool! I see what you mean now about the unicorn thing and the picture is really pretty. Love the dragon (remember I said that?) it's just sooo pretty. Doesn't mean the unicorn isn't oh no...it's just like...Wow!

:-) Tara B. Ball replies: "Thank you, glad you like it so much."

Very nicely done unicorn! And that is a very difficult position of the head to draw convincingly~ (I've tried, and it takes a lot of erasing to get it to look right 12

Also, beautiful colors! I love the contrast of the bright tiny little dragon, and the pure white of the unicorn. You did the unicorn's hair very well too. Excellent work.

OOh! I love this picture, probably my favorite out of yours (even though its hard to pick a favorite). The colors are excelent on this one, keep up the great work!

I love the colors in the dragon, they look good together, and I love serpentine dragons without wings... people don’t draw enough of them.

And the unicorn looks delicate, yet not unnecessarily so. I love the way you shaded it; it seems slightly silvery.
