Ink Dragon II

i love this artwork, especially how the lines splay put from the body giving the dragon a real sense of life and fluidity. i also love the darker colors used in the artwork which gives it a real menacing atmosphere but with a certain elegance and gracefulness which seems to bring the dragon to life. i also love how in the lower left corner beneath the dragon the grey shadow beneath it with the black flecks in it which looks as if ash has permeated into the corners. the stark whiteness behind the rest of the dragon also helps the dark head and splayed wing really stand out against the rest of the art
