Artist Statement
A Japanese dragon is a creature of Japanese folklore and mythology. He repeatedly appears as a protector of the Buddhas and a generous giver of happiness and wealth. Most often they live in bodies of water: the ocean, a river or a lake. Despite their attachment to the water element, these dragons often possess the ability to fly. Often they are able to shorten or lengthen their own body, can become invisible and have the ability to reincarnate into other creatures. The breath of Japanese snakes turns into clouds, from which fire or ordinary rain can fall.
The painting is done using a paint imprinting technique left over from another painting. I like to minimize paint waste this way, it's an eco-friendly zero-waste technique.
