Description Well, what do we have here now?


Just a watercolour painting of a Sumo Japanese Dragon taking a break from sumo training after a long, hard day at the dojo. As he rests to prepare for the upcoming Sumo Tournament, he relaxes with a soothing honey rub on his fat scaly belly and placing one of his feet up on the stand so that one of the dojo servants could come and give it a massage. I shouldn't have chosen yellow-gold for the dragon's scales, should have used a more contrasting colour like blue though. Oh well...


(And the honey pot was originally yellow, but it camouflaged too well, so I re-painted it green).


Drawn with coloured pencils and Ecoline Inks on paper.

Is that a sumo wrestler dragon, all the way from Tokyo, Japan?

I guess once he gets rested up, I might should train with him.
