Inktober 2017 - Day 5 - Long

[amberdreams]

I'd forgotten this until I was messing about today, but the Chinese word 龙 Lóng means dragon. So yep, that's where I went with today's prompt! It had to be done. I experimented with my Japanese felt-tip brush pen, with a bit of a wash, in a new A6 sketch book I bought today in Manchester Art Gallery - because I can't seem to stop buying art supplies I don't need.

And if you haven't read R A Macavoy's Tea with the Black Dragon yet, then you should.

yes I think this is the one I'm most happy with so far - the brush pen was really nice to use with the sweep of the scales!
