I've always had a fascination with dragons! They always seemed so fierce and frightening and at the same time very interesting, mysterious, and intriguing! I'm still a novice at drawing and painting them, hence this is only my third attempt at creating a "suitable" dragon illustration. This is what I came up with by engaging my first dragon image with a new one I pencil sketched, then colored in photoshop! Hope you like the results, thanks for viewing!~S

You know Steve, the other day me Ankh and Unkhl stopped by and asked to borrow me boat - I said Unkhl Joe (Joe Hazelwood former boat captain) I don't think so - you may be skilled at the big ones but let me take care of me little one - anyway Steve I asked him where he wanted to go in it and he said he was leaving the country... go figure in a seventeen foot runabout - I let him take it! Hey - this pic of yours is very cool Steve - that dragon thing going on - how often does one see that outside of New Year's Eve, eh? ~:0)

Artist Reply: Hey thanks, Chas!! I think I enjoy your "ultra-COOL" comments, almost as well as I Luv your art!!! Take care my friend!! ~S

Love these dragons, Steve- they're superbly done! Your description of what dragons are to you - fierce, mysterious, interesting and intriguing is really well expressed in your work as you create them this way! Also, I love the way you create your background - it integrates so well and brings the composition together marvelously.

Artist Reply: Hello Kathryn. Thanks again for taking a look! I wasn't really sure about this sky blue background at first, but when I threw in the dark mountains, it kinda pulled together! I am so encouraged to do more dragons now!!! Take care!! ~S
