Description
There's a very long story behind this image.It took four years from the spring I took the photos of the apple blossoms (the trees died the very next spring), to the last brush stroke. This painting was a journey in every sense of the word. I had to stop working on it when my old computer started to struggle with the file size. The old rig couldn't take it anymore. Eventually I thought I lost the PSD file. All I had were two small jpgs of the unfinished piece. Fast forward to today, and while looking through my portable hard drive for a music soundtrack, I stumbled into the file. And Corel Painter worked. So.... I finished it.
Be gentle. It's not perfect, but it's done.

What you mean be gentle? This is amazing!! I love all the attention to detail and the bg is fuzzy and the dragon is amazing, look at all the little teeth and scales.
I've never seen flowers colored that way before, it's very good.

Cute dragon! Fun fact, there is an actually species of bird called "Bee Eaters". They're in the Bronx Zoo and they're very happy eating bees there.

This is absolutely beautiful. You've done a marvelous job in capturing a pearlescent luster on the white dragon's scales with hints of translucency in the wings and throat. It carries the sense of dynamic slow-motion nature documentary footage. Definitely worth four years in the making.
