I hope it’s clear that I was going for a stained glass look in this drawing of Rory. I thought it would be a fun idea. Now it makes me think about making this with actual glass.
pencil, colored pencils, & ink, on paper.

Rory the dragon gazing into a mirror, what does he see? An impressive dragon!
I love the idea of how we see ourselves being different from reality, of only we could all have high opinions of ourselves like Rory does.
Today I drew this mental image I have from time to time of Rory acting out his crush. Very few people know of the other animals in Rory’s story, but this is one of them. Ishime, a panther cub. Rory wants to give her a flower.
I drew this with fine tipped sharipes on paper. I like the ability I have to do some fun ink things with sharpies but find myself wishing for the control of a quill. Now if only I had a good way to utilize various ink colors with a quill?
Many of you know that each year at Lent instead of giving something up, I take something on. I take the same thing on every year. Daily Creativity. I create something every day.
But I haven’t yet this year, what gives? Part of it, is I was surprised at how quick lent came, secondly I was swamped, mentally and physically. Not an excuse, just what’s been going on. I didn’t even write my valentine’s story this year. I plotted for it, but never wrote it. My lack of creativity has been draining me, so tonight I got back to something I’m good at, Drawing.
We are in the middle of a whiteout, a snow storm that is so windy you can’t see anything but white. We have snow drifts in the middle of the road, they pulled the plows off the transcanada highway. So I of course think of Rory all bundled up and shoveling. In reality his humans do that for him.
