Here's a painting I did for Devious Dining, from Drawtober back in 2023. Orange cat stealing the bread because of course that's fitting for orange cat behavior.
A watercolor painting of a scene featuring an orange cat dressed like a rouge stealing a loaf of bread. They have an orange scarf to match their fur, a black cloak, a pack tied to their side and one on their tail as well for storing extra goodies. The baker whose bread was stolen can be seen in the backround, as well as an onlooker and a family of other cats peeking out from the window the thief cat is running past.

Fanart from Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. Had to paint Zelda and Ganon as their dragon forms.

#smaugust #dragon #totk #fanart #legendofzeldatotk
A watercolor painting of some fan art for Legend of zelda tears of the kingdom. It features dragon zelda and dragon ganon in the sky. The light dragon (zelda) is mostly white, with gold along her spine and glowing blue crests and horns. The dark dragon (ganon) is shades of red and black, with a crest of many brown horns framing its face, a bright red mane and red crests on its spine.

For day 12, the theme was porcelain.
I was trying to make this one look more as though it was sculpted out of porcelain, and maybe brought to life by some form of magic. #smaugust #dragon #watercolor

Day 7's theme was Tower, so I went with a blue dragon guarding a tower it most likely either wants loot from or is hoarding loot inside of. #smaugust #smaugust2025 #traditionalart #dragon

This is my painting for day 6 of Smaugust, which was Bloom following Katy Lipscomb's prompt list.

This one is another in my dragons and blooms series, a little windflower (anemone) dragon.

For today, the prompt was Fanart, so I painted a Nergigante from Monster Hunter World. #nergigante #monsterhunter #dragon #smaugust #traditionalart #dragonart

Day eight from Katy Lipscomb's Smaugust prompt list was feline, and this was my dragon for the day.

I brought cat like features into the dragons design in a few places, as well as giving it a blend of fur and scale.

Day four from Katy Lipscomb's Smaugust prompt list was paper.
I thought for the design I'd go with paper scrolls, stacks and shapes all jutting out in varying directions, as well as large paper sheets for the wings. This one is done in watercolors in only two colors. #smaugust #dragon #watercolor

For day 2, the prompt for Smaugust on the list I'm following is Forbidden, so it made me think of Slifer the Sky Dragon.

Going to try to do some Smaugust paintings, and this time I'm following Katy Lipscomb's prompt list. Day one was Terrarium, so here's my painting for today. Definitely a fun quick painting to get a bit more practice in.

Petrichor, a Kits'adria DnD character I'd whipped up in 2024. Also featuring her tiny lil fox form.

#dnd #traditionalart #artwork #kitsadria #foxgirl #watercolor
A kits'adria (fox like humanoid) dnd character with her fox form next to her. She has long braided hair which transitions from brown to light blue towards the ends, a tall pair of fox ears, a big fluffy tail with plants woven around it. She is a traveling painter, holding one of her brushes up by her face. The rest of her supplies are in the pack on her left. She is wearing a simple jacket and blouse, a green cape, some basic pants, boots and a belt with a mini sketchbook across her waist.

Here's a painting of mine from a couple years back. I still really like the way the crystal facets turned out with this one.

#watercolor #dragon #dragonart #watercolordragon #traditionalart #painting #artwork #fantasyart #purpledragon
A watercolor illustration of a purple and blue dragon with long frills on its cheeks floating its way through some crystals of the same color. The background is a pale pink hue, reflected on the crystals and the dragon itself.

Not sure if I'd posted my Chickadee here before. It's been a while, I've had a lot of stuff going on but I'm working on getting back at it.

INPRNT is having a sale, feel free to take a look if you'd like.

A turkey tail mushroom dragon, one of two of this specific mushroom type I've painted so far. Part of my mushroom dragon series, done in watercolors.

#dragon #art #painting #traditionalart #watercolor #dragonart #mushroomdragon #artwork
A dragon based on a turkey tail mushroom. Its scales take on the shape, brown to greenish color and overall texture of the mushroom it is based on. This results in a frill around its neck and mushroom-like plates on its wings and body. It has antennae-like structures on its face and large eyes.

Going through some really serious struggles in my personal life at the moment. Any support on my artwork has meant the world to me.

Watercolor Rathalos fan art from earlier this year. I feel really happy with the way this guy turned out. Probably one of my favorite paintings I did this year.

#traditionalart #watercolor #fanart #monsterhunter #rathalos #dragon
A watercolor illustration of a Rathalos from Monster Hunter. It is flaring its wings and has its claws and tail ready for an attack, as if it's swooping down towards something. Its scales transition from a crimson red on its back to a more dull tan on its belly and feet, with some black markings on its head, tail and wings.

Mycena subcyanocephala dragon, painted in watercolors for my mushroom dragon art series which I'm steadily building up.
A watercolor painting of a small blue dragon based on the mycena subcyanocephala fungus. The dragon itself looks a bit insect like, with yellow tipped antennae and small spines along its body similar to the texture on the mushrooms. It also has bright yellow eyes and is mostly blue, with bits of white detailing along its body. There are a few of the mushrooms in the background.

Here's my Madagascan Sunset Moth dragon, painted in watercolors with some prismacolor pencil details from last year. I'm glad I built up the darker areas slowly with layers of color instead of just flat, I still feel happy with the result of this.

#art #watercolor #painteddragon #dragon
A watercolor painting of a colorful dragon based on a madagascan sunset moth. It has dark patterning on its back, wings and face, and large eyes, with smaller wings framing its face that match the larger ones in color. The dragon's underbelly is bright yellow which shifts to vibrant green towards its tail. Its wings also feature the green to blue shift, as well as the yellow, some orange and white in a few areas. The dragon has a few moths flying around it as well.
