Description This is a remake of my original Village Guardian piece. [link]

It is a special picture to me, because I think it marks a turning point in my art. Many of the techniques I've been observing and practicing came together well in that piece.
I still really enjoy the composition and concept, but it was looking a little dated next to my recent art, so I thought I would re-draw the picture, using the things I've learned over the last year and a half.

I made it wider, too.
Enjoy!

It's a dragon, not a drake...

Great Dragon, I could see him or her making a bonfire for them.
I love the scales!

It is relieving. Knowing someday, humans and dragons may one day live in peace.

This is by far one of the most beautiful dragon scenes that I've seen, very detailed and cheerful. Of course, I may be quite biased, as I love the idea of a dragon and humans living together amicably.

*More than 3 years later*

It's a shame what back at 2011 nobody wrote a piece of literature for this beautiful work

But I really really liked it! ^_^

For a friend i used this art for write, most because it was very cute and... Well ^_^

What a cute and poignant picture! I love how the dragon is depicted as protecting the village rather than destroying it, it's a lovely idea! The women patting its snout is a nice touch too. I also love the colouring, especially the glow from the fire on the surrounding buildings and the dragon
