THE INNER CHILD'S DRAGON
THE INNER CHILD'S DRAGON
Ink, 11" x 14" Image Area, 15" x 20" Illustration Board
The purpose of this project was to create a self-portrait that was based on our hobbies, interests, or personality. This piece was inspired by the "How to Train Your Dragon" movie series that I loved as a child. I was particularly inspired by the movie still where the main character, Hiccup, leans his forehead and embraces his dragon, Toothless. In this concept, I imagined myself in the place of Hiccup and recreated the scene through ink and paper.
