Artist's Comments

Kind of a sequel to the other Dragonfly painting, except the dragonflies are (a little) less podlike in appearance, and there's two more of them. I sense INSECT MATING has occured! The dragonfly on the lower part of the painting actually has a complete set of wings, but I couldn't get an evenly-lit photo of the whole canvas, so the tips of his wings had to be left out of this shot. Sounds like a small thing, but it makes a difference! This was done for a charity auction. I've forgotten how big the canvas is, but it's a pretty good sized one, so let's say. . .

There is also a close-up of my favorite dragonfly in the scraps section.

I love the technique...
:iconlittlel:
oh how wonderful. I have been working on some dragonfly stuff myself...however I fear it will not be as good as this...!! :(

You technique has really brought a delicate feel to the picture.
:icontaw:
that's nice!
it really calms me down for some reason...nice to look at it.
i really like the detail you put into the wings in contrast to the rather simple background. and i dig the squares in the bg...dunno why...but i just keep staring at them :aww:
besides...great technique indeed!

great job!
:iconalienari:

Ahhhh.I love BOTH of your dragonfly paintings.I cant even tell which one I like better...
Somehow the dragonfly already itself gives the piece and very romantic,fairy-tale...dreamy feel to it.But the background adds so much depth.

Beautiful work,Im really fascinated by it.Truly:D
