Yet more dragon art...

Okay, so we have a new flatbed scanner now, and I'm not nuts about it but it gets the job done.  This is my newest dragon idea...to be translated into a 3-d wall sculpture at a later date.

I noticed at the Chinese Lantern Festival that all the dragons were depicted with pearls.  It seems the dragon pursuing the pearl is so ubiquitous to Chinese culture that you rarely see an artistic representation of a dragon without the pearl in there somewhere.  Even the dragon dance (involving about a dozen people and a dragon puppet on a series of poles) had the pearl in there as well...the dance was led by a guy carrying the "pearl" on a long pole.  I was struck by the pearl, because it was covered with designs and brightly colored.  So my dragon's pearl will be black with bright gold clouds all over it, all made of separate pieces.  I noticed at the festival that the dragons were really brightly colored too, so I though this one would look cool in blues and reds.  All basic primary colors; red, blue, and yellow.  I think it'll be neat when I'm done.  :-)

And in other news I just fired off a terse letter to, well...let's just say it's a huge company called  "Circus Of The Sun" and they're up in Canada.  Those freaking people...they're making me old.  I've been in contact with them for over three years now and I've yet to see a dime from them.  They just called me a few weeks ago, blew sunshine up my ass about how badly they need to buy this mask design from me, and then failed to call me back the next day with a response to my proposal.  *sigh*   Why I expected anything other than unprofessional behavior from these people, I'll never know.  They've been a thorn in my side from the moment they contacted me.

Anyway my letter was bitchy and full of words like "resolution" and "expedient closure " and "copyright infringement"...etc.  They can buy it or mail the damn thing back...at this point I don't care.   I just want the whole thing to be over, already.  *fed up*

So to console myself, I think I'll spend the night drawing stuff.  :-)  That always cheers me up.
