Koi Dragon

Hmm well it doesn't look much like the way I pictured it in my head but then they never turn out the way I originally envision them. I was originally planning to do the dragon in traditional gold but he insisted on being marked like his koi companions. And who am I to argue I really loved painting those koi. Must find an excuse to paint more!

This is the first of four cards I'm doing for a dragon deck. I know the next one is going to be in lava but have no idea for the other two. I'm sure something will pop up.

5x7 acrylic on illustration board.
