Good Form
by: Thomas

That's pretty cute. Watercolors are a tricky medium to work with (I avoid them since I'm mainly a digital tablet or pencil artist). I also like to use markers or colored pencils.

Good use of weight, as the dragon has believable mass. I would recommend adding some shadow where she sits so that she isn't floating in space.

Shading, or using slightly darker tints around the bottom edges of the eggs would give them more of a 3D look. You could also accentuate her feminine attributes with eyelashes or similar, since I have some trouble seeing any specific gender.

I really like this dragon.
by: Jeff

Emms,

Great work on your dragon. I like how you adapted your drawing from the 'Baby Cartoon Dragon' lesson here on the site. With some settle, well-placed changes (body height, arm length, details, horns) you've gone from baby to mother. Good work!

By the way, the watercolor painting is very nice. :-)
