What relief it is to finally get this here! I've never spent so long on a piece of art before.
Following the start of this piece was a long and arduous journey of improvement and patience. I took on the idea around December of the last year, after a few radical changes in my life started taking place, and I realized I wanted to get more serious about art, and being an artist, overall. It was to be finished by the end of January, but around the second week of February, something happened that made my life do a full 180°. Suddenly I was so occupied, my free time basically vanished. I don't wanna get into much detail here, for both the sake of privacy and well, I thought this piece deserved some effort on the description, more than me just rambling about my recent life.

So, what's going on in there, you ask.
Well, it came as a flash of inspiration. That noodle-derg you see in there is supposed to be as though a god, but incarnated. Some say that dragons could be thought of as gods in flesh incarnate. As useful or not as the idea is, I like it, at least. It really gives you something to feel in awe for, whenever you think of a dragon. By the way... no, it's not that dragon you're thinking about, even if I do see how it could have been inspired by that. This one could be said to be a creation of mine, even if sometimes it doesn't feel like he comes from me at all... as though he's one such entity himself trying to get a paw planted on the world through my piece. And well, the name I chose for the painting owes to that, being sorts of a tribute to this one dragon, trying to make himself known through my efforts, and bringing the prospect of 'real' art to my table in return. Thinking about it... my god, my pieces from just a year ago were absolute crap compared to this. So yeah, I'm mostly happy with the outcome.
