A treasure valued by the oldest and wisest dragons was the love of music. They were drawn to soothing melodies that calmed their savage nature. They would often bring gifts of gold to be melted down to decorate the finely crafted instruments. In exchange, the ladies of the court would play for the kingdom’s dragons in an open field that the creatures loved the most. At times the princesses would sing songs they had written about each dragon to earn the favor of the majestic beasts. It was the highest honor to sing and play for the creatures of old. There was mutual respect of the people and the dragons and they lived in harmony for centuries.

Here is the painting I did done in watercolors as part of a commission. I posted the drawing to this a week or two ago and spent the entire time on it since. Hope you enjoy it. A good amount of work went into it (about 35+ hours).

I used Winsor & Newton Watercolors on Arches Hot Press watercolor paper, Acrylic Gesso for highlights, and added some Acrylic Gold accents for the dresses and instruments. Size is 18''x24''.
