Birth of Lung (water) Dragon by Anoia999
Inspired by Chinese poetry found in the novel "Eight Skilled Gentlemen" by Barry Hughart. The Dragon-Boat Festival is a major plot point: Lung Dragons race on the equinox to bring the Yin/Female/Water influence to China & therefore call the rainy season (monsoon).
Still working on several other drawings...this one was obviously a quick one. This is the second drawing inspired by Mr. Hughart's novels. I highly recommend them (there are only three). Hope to one day run into him as he lives here.

Thank you for the awesome comments! I absolutely know what you mean about not having enough time to get these done (I keep trying though. I understand why some people hate tracing, I only traced about 3 pieces, majority of it is my weird imagination or referenced. I should let you know, I will be posting very (creepy) things because I'm looking for a way to vent my nightmares, I'm just letting you know so your young children don't get scared if they saw it. There's other adults on here, I've only found a few but they are worth the search. It's nice to have normal conversations. This drawing is also very cute, I have a unhealthy obsession for dragons (among many other things) and love almost anything dragon related. Keep drawing, you do great work!
