Artist's Comments

Our assignment was to do a book cover illustration that had to be a famous landmark with something happening to it.
I decided to go with the Great Wall of China as the spine of a Chinese dragon.

After all, the Great Wall itself is known as "The Stone Dragon".

I thought a Chinese/Sumi-e brush painting style would suit the theme :). Inspired by several paintings and playing way too much Okami xD

The characters on the top just read "Great Wall of China" and "Dragon"

I had a lot of fun with this one :3

Thanks Maz. Yeah I was having trouble at what colors to use before I started painting, but I'm satisfied at the result :)
