Artist's Comments

Well, it was supposed to be *Poetic-Dragon's prize for winning the *Evil-Peoples-Club contest...

But I'm not happy with the way it turned out.

I will be putting through three new dragons next week - two which are going to be for your contest, the other is for your personal use :). Because I'd feel guity if I gave you this one... it hasn't tured out great :(. But if you feel an attatchment to it already, Jacky, you can have it along with another dragon :)

1. The Deer. I painted him/her today. It's mostly brown with victoria green and red highlights (a v. green head, swirls on wings, legs, swirls on tail, reddish brown wings and three red dots on the back of its head...) It's a symbolic dragon, but symbolic for what, I don't know. You have to decide that (whoever gets it ;) )

2. The honeyeater. I painted him/her today as well. It has its nose in a pot (which you can put a pencil in... or a bunch of insence or something) and it's nose and claws are yellow. Most of it is a golden/brown colour but the tip of its tail and the lower part of its claws are dark brown. It's a practical dragon, it holds something for you. :) I don't know what its stmbol is (eg. your 'sweet tooth' dragon, or your calming dragon or your childish dragon...) so you can figure that out, whoever the owner is.

3. The Creativity/anti-boredom dragon this, is my favourite. He/she is mostly a light blue, with white tips on its bird-like wings and a nice lilac for its snout and a few other hightlights. It also has a little bit of light bermuda green in places... I can't remember too much, but I hope that it looks great... :)

None of these I can make for gifts or sale because they're all in contests and for Jacky. I won't be making too many dragons in the future, either. But you can request somethign else in pottery if you want :).

Its nice, but I'd suggest making it bigger. It looks like you dipped it into wax before glazing, do you not have stilts for the kiln? It would look better if the bottom was glazed as well.
:iconguardianleyevermore:
Yeah... ^^; the mistake was in the wax... there was too much wax in the pan and it went on the part I was going to paint... I don't have stilts in the kiln I'm using. I can't really use the kiln without waxing the bottom of my pieces. Thanks for that advice, though :). I'll see what I can do to improve my future pieces :)

Oh I see, your in a school art class, correct? I can understand why the teacher would make everyone wax the bottom of everything first. I can't tell you how many times someone stuck their piece on the bottom of the kiln, and after firing they realize its now fused to it. Its pretty frustrating how ignorant people are. Although, ask your teacher about buying some stilts, and maybe give them to the more advanced students to use.
