I created this dragon to celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year–yes, the zodiac Year of the Dragon! As always, a traditional hand-drawn piece was rendered, scanned and cleaned up in Photoshop. The coloring was then digitally applied. I opted for a muted color tone rather than the traditional red and gold palette, modernizing it a bit more.
