Description Off to a nice beginning of 2009.
This is yet another personal piece that I spent a day painting, and I would like to dedicate it to a few masters of digital art out there. I'm not going to put out any specific names as that always makes things ugly with endless discussions etc

But You are priceless to me, without You guys I would not have anyone to look up to, and strive to become as good as You.

A day spent, no reference used, several layers, sizereduced alot.
Photoshop and wacom tablet.

I admire the details in the old and wise wizard's face, as much as I admire the dragon, sitting upon his head, chewing his hat feather.
