I was thrilled when Emily’s mother Michele emailed me Emily’s latest magnificent creation – two dragons! The first dragon is very large and is billowing hot pink swirls, toasting a marshmallow on the tree stump, very fun idea. One of the things I like about this artwork is that Emily uses so much imagination to create this idea. Emily does some advanced technique here too – notice that Emily uses a swirl pattern in the smoke of the large dragon, and then Emily uses a similar swirl pattern on the pebble and flowers on the ground, and more of the swirl pattern also on the top of the tree stump. That is an excellent use of pattern Emily! Emily also has a fun use of color – I like the blueish stars and touches of yellow. Emily’s artwork not only has a yellow sun, but it has some yellow flowers and some yellow by the hot pink swirls. I think the way Emily uses the yellow color in this artwork adds something very special, nice use of color Emily! The first dragon is large and easy to spot, but part of the fun of this artwork is finding Emily’s second dragon, which is much smaller. Hint: Look on the ground for that subtle second dragon. I like artworks like this, where the more you look, the more surprises you will find. GREAT WORK Emily! I am so proud of you! Thank you mom Michele for sharing!
