Description Second art request

A dragon for !

I had the idea to create a lunar dragon, dark as the night and keeper of both a full and a crescent moon.
I really had a lot of fun drawing the dragon and painting the cloudy backgroung !!

I hope you like it !!!!!

I used watercolor and watercolor pencils for the details and I tried a new idea.. I add a touch of oil pastel ( Sennelier iridscent oil pastel) to try to create an iridscent effect on both moons.

If you are interested in asking me an Art Request or offering me an Art-Trade here's the link :[link] or feel free to send me a note !

You're really clever in the way you experiment with techniques! That's so cool and I like the idea of having both a full and a crescent moon in there!

Absolutely! I tried an experiment myself in an old picture which I thought had a pretty nice result, though it sounds a bit strange. I used pastels and then I painted on what I had drawn with them with water, the same way you do with watercolor pencils. You can see the result here (in the background): [link]
Please note that this picture is nearly 3 years old and that's why some things look out of proportion

Thank you so much! I actually really like the picture too. I know that some things are out of proportion but I think I got the feeling right and I like the motif and composition. So even if it's not perfect in every sense, this picture is very dear to me
I like the effect, maybe I'll use it again sometime

C'est assez original comme composition
J'aime bien la forme des ailes, et.. oh mais je n'avais pas remarqué tout de suite le croissant de lune qu'il enroule avec sa queue!! C'est très joli

Peut-être les lunes auraient gagné à être plus claires, qu'elles ressortent mieux ^^ Mais c'est déjà très bien comme ça. Mais elles ont l'air brillantes, c'est normal?
Tu as utilisé quels mediums en fait?

Lorellyne In reply to Sieskja [2012-01-29 14:21:11 +0000 UTC]

Merci beaucoup !!

Oui j'avais peur que les lunes ne ressortent pas bien..c'est normal qu'elles aient l'air brillantes j'ai essayé une nouvelle idée..du pastel gras pour leur donner un aspect irisé et qu'elles brillent plus mais j'aurais peut être du laisser plus de blanc du papier et mettre juste quelques touches de pastel irisé..dosages à revoir pour le prochain dessin de lune !! ^^
merci pour tes conseils !!

Sinon c'est de l'aquarelle et des crayons aquarellables pour les détails. Je viens de me rendre compte que je n'avais pas expliqué les médiums utilisés dans la description.. je vais aller corriger ça !

La prochaine requête c'est la tienne !!

Peut-être que ça passe bien "en vrai" mais que le scanner ternit un peu... ça m'arrive aussi ^^

Ouiiiiiii j'ai hâte de voir un ours sous ta plume!

Lorellyne In reply to Sieskja [2012-02-01 22:14:08 +0000 UTC]

oui je m’énerve fréquemment contre mon scanner parce qu'il ternit les couleurs surtout les violets !

J'ai des idées .. j'espère qu'elles te plairont !!
