    New Artwork: Starborn - Portrait of a Dragonkin

    Title: Starborn
    Size: 5.5"x8.5"
    Medium: Graphite


    The full title of this painting is 'Starborn - Portrait of a Dragonkin' and it came to be after I felt a need to revisit a concept and composition that is like a comfortable pair of shoes. I have used the same composition for 'The Lady' and 'The Trickster' -- two paintings that represented the start of my love and desire to do a tarot deck that explored the concept that we all carry the essence of dragons within us, and that dragons are akin to angels.

    Little did I know at the time that my love for dragonkin would develope into such a grand passion. I love dragons, I adore dragonkin, I love doing any subject that weaves the essence of dragon into it. To me, dragons are magick, the cosmos, and I that is why they will feature heavily in my tarot deck.

    This wee graphite, however, is not going to be a part of the tarot deck, but is another illustration for my book and will grace one of several title pages. I am also going to be doing a coloured OSWOA version which will be placed for auction on eBay once completed.

    Wow...this is spectacular!!!!! I can see why you have a passion for Dragons...you are amazing at drawing them and their Kin. May the "Magick" continue to call your name. Peace and Blessings,
