He’s got a belly: Drawing Dragons Day 35

Today was a strange day; a wonderful day.

The sun was shining. We sat down in the backyard swing. We pulled up the remains of the tomato plants. We ate chives that just emerged from the emptiness of winter. And, in case you missed it, there was a great article in the Oregonian today about my new publisher, Not a Pipe Publishing.

It was so cool to open the Sunday newspaper and find this:

The rest of the day was just gravy. And ice cream.

I drew today’s dragon from this reference. He’s got a little belly. That’s what Bob said about this sweet litle guy. A screenshot of him was saved on my computer because sometime, at some point, I saw him and freaked the heck on out.

I knew I would have to draw him.

I stumbled back upon him today, and sat down with my pencil and notebook.

Wonder is fast asleep, Bob is in the other room, and Rosalynn is sleeping on my left foot.

I ate too much ice cream.

Just like this guy, I’ve got a little belly too. Little green dragon with big head

Just enough to hold the ice cream.

I amended his horns, gave him a little forehead sass, and hailed the return of the face wings.

I love the placement of the eyes; he’s so unassuming.

Bob called him Chips. And I call him cute.

That’s enough for today. The world seems so very possible.

Keep creating,

Kate
