Dragon2 by Carmen Ditiu
I found this lovely dragon in the gallery of Carmen Ditiu. I like the contrast of it’s top half facing one direction with the bottom half facing the opposite direction. The painting has great balance and though it is a rather subdued color palette, the color harmony is excellent and would be a great addition for any collector of Chinese / Oriental dragons. Very well done!
The surrounding art is very decorative and showcases the sharp dragon talons and the nature of dragons quite well. For me, the golds are a reminder of the greedy grasping nature of dragons on one hand while folk tales also tell us that Gold Dragons are immensely wise and friendly to people.
