Pencil Drawings Dragons
Depend on the Eye of the Artist
To Deliver a Dynamic Picture

An art doodle is a first step. It helps the artist work through the problem to solve before going to a sketch. The sketch helps the artist keep the subject of the picture from becoming static. Instead the goal is to reflect the immediacy of the scene - that it is alive. Vital. Specific.

In this sketch drawing, the dragon is in the air. It looks strong. There is the impression of muscles under the flesh of the limbs. It is breathing fire. And the tail whips around as if the dragon is changing direction in mid-flight.

Where will this doodle take you? That is up to you. You are an artist. Practice doodling yourself to work out a picture problem. See, really see lizards and birds move. Observe how they stop, change direction, start instantly. And then remember. When you remember what you see and observe, it shapes the way you draw from static to vital. From dull to energized. From average to extraordinary. And that is what makes an artist happy.
