I forgot to add a body text ugh
I was in Hospital, and with a lot of time on my hands, spent 7 hours drawing this. I gave it away to the nurses who took care of me. They really liked it.

edit: also did not have an eraser or pencil, they gave me a box of colouring pencils and I did my best. I gave it away so I wouldn’t keep working on it lol

Ironically they put him up on the shelves, in the nurses station, that cares for the Mental Health PICU. It can be seen through the windows, haha.

thank you! I am self-taught and kind of have my own style. I normally sketch first, but without a pencil or eraser I just sketched in red, traced in brown, coloured the base ‘colours’, coloured the shading (light&dark), shaded more with black, re-outlined the image with black, and did the background last since I was unsure what to do with it. By the time I was done the dragon I was too tired to do a detailed background lol

I mainly do digital art, but traditional is always a fun challenge.
