Oh, that's just gorgeous work...

I think I say that about pretty much everything you post here, but it's always true! Love the foreground work and the little dragon dude. Where is that forest, I want to visit it.

This must have been a relief to paint after the fantasy painting for the kid's magazine, ha ha. Earthy, natural hues are an ease to the eyes... and gliding through trees is fun!

Wow.. I love your backgrounds, as always! You are one of the few unique people who actually put effort into backgrounds as much as the point of interest itself. A feast to the eyes, it is, there is so much to look at.

I enjoy the soft, neutral green and brown tones you used, it really brings out the forest environment in the painting. And there is this silent, peaceful aura that I always see in your art.. It works especially well in this piece. 8]

Well done! I think I like this enough to fav it. I've always loved the forest.

Just : woah
Your background skills are pure win.
I really liked how you did the perspective, the dragon on the back looks really dynamic like if it is flying for real. Not just a drawing <3

It was therapeutic to paint, after the magazine one... XD

Sometimes it's fun just to do art for the sake of art (and backgrounds be damned), but so often I feel that the backgrounds are what makes the piece- not necessarily the subject. We are so small in the world around us, and it's the world that shapes us and influences who we are and what we do (whether we admit it or not). It's a great disservice to neglect backgrounds all the time.

This piece is every bit about the forest as it is about the dragons... perhaps even moreso in some aspects.

Thank you for the kind comment!!
