Description March 21

Still traveling in search of that elusive pixidragon. Rumors have brought us deep into the mountains of the midwest, though I fear I am entertaining my doubts about this search. A pixidragon? In North America? Doubtful.

As I write this, a crested Toku has landed on my index finger. Cute little creature... very common in the america's, especially in the summer. This little fellow had to be no more than one inch big, including those wings of his.

In greece there is a myth that they are decended from but-ter-flies. Some strange creature that was nothing but those massive wings! A silly little story mothers would tell their children.

But I must confess... they are lovely little animals.

Beautiful work. The butterfly idea is quite intertaining. I always thought of them as lil pixies.

So amazingly adorable. Spot on with the pose - it's just perfection! Precious moment you've captured with a very small, delicate creature. -^^-

Ahah - but the description is what makes it complete. Your creativity in all aspects of this is just... arghH... Wonderful!!

Not sure if you're aware of this... but there's a site called writing.com. Just something for us writers to spend lots of time on, nothing official except for the site's monthly contests. ANYWAY! There's a minor contest in it called ReInvent the Dragon. I would use this picture as inspiration for one of the next rounds, but it's your dragon and your story, and you write it well. If you ever care to expand it and get a little more exposure, you can go to that site, sign up free, and post it with this picture below it (mentioning, of course, that both are yours). I figured I'd let you know before I ran away with the idea.

Maybe thats why we dont believe dragons are real...they're just so small that we havent found one yet...
Really a beautiful piece of art though.

I love all your little Toku Dragons...They are soo cute! And they all look so alive, the way you make them. I started going through all your artwork thinking to fav a few..but there were so many, I just decided to watch you instead. So just this one for now, because it reminds me of the damselfly I had on my thumb on a hike long ago. Heres an idea...could there be a dragonfly-winged toku? Or maybe another type of tiny dragon like that?
