    I have a request. Does anyone draw dragons? I've looked through thousands of images and can't find quite what I want. I'm trying to figure out a tattoo. I want two dragons, intertwined, going up my back. I want the style to be more simplified than traditional Asian dragon drawings, but not quite tribal either. I have the character for dragon on my back in a style that looks like it was written with a brush. That's the style I'm going for. And I'm trying to find something that evokes love and tenderness in addition to the dragons' strength and power. Any ideas?
    im a tattoo artist. i might be able to help.
    Where are you? I'm in GA. My husband is a designer and photographer so he can make modifications to some designs but I'm having a hard time finding a good base design to start with. I've found countless images of very ornate tattoos that would look like a giant mess from any distance. I want someone to be a few feet away and still be able to tell what it is. I like simplicity and clean lines in just about everything in my life (clothes, furniture, even my dogs).

    I said I'd be back eventually when I was on my laptop to share my art, it only took what.... three days? Overnights :grumble:

    And here is a fan art drawing I did with pencil, and then colored with photoshop

    And then an example of my photography

    I like all of the art, but there's so much here I will have to address the individual at this point to really say what I like. However ghhost definitely has a pic that stands out. Very different, I like it.

    thank you, I love your work too. I really like drawing the female form and you are really good at it from what I can tell. :)

    @ghhost I can draw ladies well, men? Eh, not so well. But sometimes they come out ok. I definitely prefer drawing the ladies ^_^

    @sissiluv lovely work, I like your use of colors. the face reminds me of the Greek statues a little.
