Description Christmas fluff. XD
Well over at for this month we each got a person to draw a dragon for(all those who signed up). I got ~i-love-alice And this is the inspiration I got by checking out her gallery.

A fluffy feathered little dragon which my brother told me it looks like a gray giraffe.XD(I have no idea where he got that) The lantern is my perception of Christmas, for some reason I see the Christmas eve as a moment of light coming into the darkness....and blah blah blah not to bother you any more....ENjoy...fave if you like, download if you like, it's s sort of a gift for you all.

watercolors+white and gold gel pens.

This is absolutely beautiful!

I love the design of creature: flowing mane, huge feathery wings and big blue eyes! Horns are really cute and add wintery feeling.

Coloring and your color choices are gorgeous; how on earth did you do those snowflakes? And that delicate lantern with all its details really captures the eye.

almaticani In reply to Agaave [2010-12-16 20:46:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.

I have plastic snowflakes (i collect snowflakes(my obsession)), so I glued them to the paper with a bit of blue tack and tapped the color on to the paper with cotton.^^ And the tiniest ones I added with brush and bit of thick white watercolor(I fixed the mane with white gel pen).

Agaave In reply to almaticani [2010-12-21 05:35:11 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome!

Ah, so you used those stickers like templates and removed them after tapping the color? That's clever! I have used that kind technique when doing cards but it can also be used in artworks! I should really start to think outside of the box...

almaticani In reply to Agaave [2010-12-23 20:52:33 +0000 UTC]

Yes, just like stickers.
Sometimes I think I'm too much in the box as well.

wonderful a gift?? thank you so much
I'm sure your fluffy feathered little dragon is not looking like a "gray giraffe"^^ it's just lovely
and about lantern - in my country there's a tradition (we kind of celebrating Christmas Eve) that on Christmas Eve evening, when the first star appear on the sky all of family members sit down to supper and celebrating Christmas Eve. It might be funny but I thought of it when I saw you comment ^^

almaticani In reply to Iurgium [2010-12-14 14:03:53 +0000 UTC]

Welcome.
Well he certainly got a lough outta me.

I never had such a tradition in my family, tho I always imagined that is how Christmas should be. But the lanterns remind me also on a German way of celebrating I think St. Nicklaus ...they await him with lanterns or something like that, I'm not sure.

Iurgium In reply to almaticani [2010-12-14 18:46:59 +0000 UTC]

I just don't agree with him

Well I myself don't know too much of German traditions perhpas it's just like you say
