First of all ~ Happy Fall everybody!
This is my favourite time of year - other than when the lilacs are bloomin' ;)






There's a new species of dragon from the Grove; a Crested Wyvern...

Lately this little guy has been dallying amongst the climbing Nightshade plants in the yard. I think if any creature could develop a taste for noxious Nightshade berries; it would be a Wyvern!











He's a bold little dragon - up for some traveling - and looking to find new adventures. If you like to see more of the rare Crested Wyvern have a look here at my eBay Auction . (The first of it's kind for Lilac Grove!)






Thanks for looking!
And wish me luck ;)

Happy Fall, Tammi! LOVE the Wyvern! Beautiful paint job, the scales really pop, and love the little bead accents...

Best of luck!!

Rachael, glad you like him. He's a another personal favourite of mine too - of course I think every dragon is...until I create the next one! But I certainly enjoyed creating this one.

Thank-you Jill! I will be sad to part with this little dragon but I'm also anxious to send him off to his new home where I hope he will be a delight to people the way he was for me during his creation!

Nicole - thanks for stopping by! I'm glad you like my little wyvern :)
And it's great to hear that you're getting back into the medium of Papier-mache (MY personal favourite!!)
I originally sent you a reply with some PM tips and a mention of two GREAT forums on the topic:
http://www.papiermache.co.uk/
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PaperMacheArt/
Although, you didn't say if you received that message, you joined up at the Yahoo list shortly thereafter. So I assumed you must have taken the suggestion :)

If you'd like to know more about my own process and some secrets behind dragon-making - stay tuned (or subscribe to my blog)! I'm involved with some fellow artists in an endeavor to reveal some of the behind-the-scenes aspects of our work process! Til then, take care.

Thanks Mandy! I can't help thinking that one of your delightful wooden mushrooms would be perfect sitting beside him or with him sitting on top!
