Wow, I must be going through a real original art phase, becuase I just made purrdence's art meme thing!



Very rare for me, it's an actual pen-and-coloured-pencil drawing, I used to do those all the time before I got the tablet and they're a lot of fun. Unfortunately, as you can see, I tend to get all enthusiastic about blending colours and doing lots of spirals and less interested in getting the perspective right etc. Anyway, purrdence, if you contact me at my username minus the alias at distantwisdom dot net with your home address I'll send you the picture (yes, an actual physical picture! There's a fair chance noone else'll get one of those :))

I need to buy more black pens, I had to do this with a permanent marker. Also, I'm really glad I found this reference image, it was very inspiring :)

Perspective shmerspective. Talk to Escher! Or even better, Picasso in his Cubist stage. Lol. That's a great drawing, I love the swirls, colours and the expression on the dragons face (so cute!). The books give it real depth, especially in combination with the flat but highly detailed background. Very nice.

Thanks! I thought of you and your icon while I was drawing it, in fact the picture came up while I was googling for reference photos :)
