Drew a spring dragon to bring spring (hopefully ehe) on my Twitch: windriderkit
Renewal
This is Spring Exuberance from a four-seasons-themed trade I did starting in 2013. The unencumbered dragon design is below the text block.
Spring is the simplest of the Four Seasons series, as I was still figuring out how much embellishment I could get away with before it became too much. This was also my first foray into a project that I'd fitted to shadowbox depth, which gave me a great opportunity to play with more pronounced layers and some larger embellishments.
I had orchids somewhat in mind when I worked out the accent colors. I knew that I wanted that fresh, almost golden-green as the color theme; freshly unfurled leaves are one of my favorite things about spring specifically for this color. A touch of blue and a touch of lavender/cream rounded out the palette.
The outer frame was done with acrylic and (though it's very hard to see) "rain dots", which are made of hard acrylic.
The middle frame is also acrylic paint, with acrylic pearls and shiny bits all the way around. There are also nylon flowers.
The dragon was done with ink and Prismacolor pencil over watercolor. I don't think I used any paint pen detailing this time.
The background behind the dragon is acrylic paint. There are ivy stickers, freshwater pearls, shiny and pearly bits, and assorted blue/green jaspers. In the middle of the dragon's coils, there's opalescent mylar with abalone shell beads on top.
Here's the dragon without all the fuss; this is just the ink/waterclor/Prismacolor design:

This was commonly requested and something I planned to do once all four seasons were finished!
I made a thing for this deltarune fanfic. It featured Susie as a dragon, so you know I had to draw it.
