Artist's Comments

I've been wanting to paint a water dragon for ages! I also have an idea for a giant one swimming underwater, but that'll have to wait for now.

What do you think is the story behind this image? It just sort of happened and doesn't have one, but I feel that it should. If any of the writers amongst you would like to suggest an idea it would be really interesting to hear what you come up with. Or if anyone has a better name than "water dragon" please let me know - I am afraid I am pretty useless at thinking of names for my paintings! ;)

This was a commission, but the client just requested a female character in water with a fantasy theme, and you know me, any excuse to paint a dragon :giggle:

Hope you like it :)

She may be caretaker for the "near-extinct dragon species (is there a singular form for this word?)" and this dragon may be one of those species' baby?

Looks fantastic - I love her tattoo. I get a feeling from it that she's some sort of attendant over a species of dragon which lays eggs in water like frogs do - she's guarding and tending the hatched young.
