My Travelling Dream

Upon returning from the journey to distant lands I wanted to make a piece that captured my whole experience. Easier said than done. After playing with the idea of Buddha imagery and Baobabs I took a step back. Throughout Laos and Thailand, dragons adorned temples, buildings, and art work. The ancient, mythical creatures were alive and well in modern day Asian culture. I took ideas from various sculptures and paintings from around the two Asian countries I visited and added some Malagasy influence. Needless to say one of my favorite creatures fit the bill perfectly. I turned the Chameleon into a dragon like figure and had two of the colorful beasts doing battle in the sky. The piece is 11" x 17" and is made up of various Prismacolor inks and markers. INSPIRED
