A Day in the Life of the Artist


Blog description

Owner: spiritvisions

My third attempt at a blog - normally what happens is I get going, then the host site shuts down, so I guess it's curtains for ArtZone.

More coming soon.

Some new dragons......

Time to post some new artwork - hot off the drawing boards this week.....

This (and the following post) are part of a commission - a selection of my dragon designs which are currently being modelled in 3D (that's 3D with clay, not 3D with pixels :-) by sculptor Sue Thornton in Wales - they will be cast in resin and mounted on the walls of various buildings around town - the focus of a 'discovery trail' for young visitors who will have to follow clues to find all the dragons and identify them by name... (or something like that).

Anyway - this should keep things going until I have something more impressive to post.  These are done in red chalk with white gouache highlights on watercolour paper hand-prepared with red egg tempera wash.  Just like Leonardo would have used !  Shame I can't quite draw as well :-)

Hope you like dragons!

Dracologist:

    Very impressive! I love stuff like this. It's like something I'd love to have at my house!
