First, a big thank you to all who are viewing and/or have been following my work! It has been a good first couple of weeks for me so far with getting acclimated with DeviantArt and sharing my work in general. I look forward to continuing to get better at this and providing y'all with more art that I really hope y'all will enjoy.





This description is a long one and I apologize (skip to TLDR below for the image description). For those who might care, the following is some insight into me and my future work/plans.







To get right to the point and not waste y'alls time, I have for the longest time (since a child) been keeping myself (or rather my work) hostage and refusing to share any non-abstract/design work out of fear of what people might think of me. Problem is, this has always been my dream and the feeling of pointlessness for doing work that was never getting shared has been building inside all these years. This last New Years, I decided I had enough and made myself a promise that I will share by the end of my college winter break and begin aligning my life with the life that fulfills me! Although it isn't going to be easy for a while, I have made huge steps in easing my way to that conclusion and I couldn't be more proud of my progress.





So long story short (and big thanks if you read this far in!), today is the day I post the other work I do (besides abstract). I know you may already be able to guess by simply looking at my favorites, I like to digitally draw dragons and anthros quite a bit. Till now, I haven't shown many people due to them being quite dear to my heart (and stigma that may surround the subject matter). I'm changing that now, and I plan to continue sharing on into the future.









) TLDR: This piece is a recent dragon portrait I cooked up while I'm in the process of refining my art style. I REALLY love the colors and simplicity of the composition. This definitely made for great style practice. The character itself is random and unknown but I like it so much I may very well bring it back and turn it into a well thought out character design. The style of this piece is one I hope to continue producing but as I continue to experiment and find what is right for me, looks might change a bit (by looking at my old stuff you can definitely see huge differences already so I don't doubt it). Let me know what you think below! It might REALLY help me in my style finding process! I'm fully open to constructive feedback as well (which would help big time considering I have been doing all this without feedback for years now
