Description
On a brilliant summer's morning, the light filtering through the bright leaves and ferns, the soft pink and purple flowers enticing the pollenated breezes, a guardian stands silently watching over the magic. The magic that we humans, once we've passed the ages of 2 or 3, the ages of wonder, never see ... and rarely remember. But the Guardian ... a griffin? a dragon? ... knows ... and sees ... and remembers it all.
This colorful and fanciful piece is very loosely based on one of my own, exclusive photos ... and with much fun and whimsy and imagination transformed into this homage to childhood and memory and warm days in the sun. Hand-painted in Corel Painter.
NOT created with AI - Artificial Intelligence.
Fine art purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... this image will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."
