This is the first in a group of images inspired by the
words "dark gothic dragon art" Some ancient myths held that
a god or godlike monster swallowed the sun every night. Here the Dragon
of Night spreads his starry wings and Milky Way belly over the evening
sky, taking the sun away in his claws like a precious jewel.
I always like dragons that are not portrayed as beastly and ugly nor
cute and comical. They are beautiful and clearly brilliant of mind,
yet also forces of elemental power not to be toyed with or treated like
ordinary animals.
