Artist's Comments

I finally did this piece. I think it took me more than 50 hours of painting (I started painting this on november 2006)
The idea came after seen that there aren´t many pictures of pumas. And even less of dragons being slayed by them. And the final result came something like "David and Goliath".
The puma is naked because I wanted to show the natural state of the animal. And the rest of the interpretation I leave it to you.

About the overal composition of the picture, I have to give credit for Anry Nemo, who is my favourite artist, and the picture I used is this [link] because I´m still young and I need a lot to learn.

EDIT: here you´ll find the original sketch [link]

EDIT: WOOOH! thank you very much for the DD! I´m really hapy!

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-08-07

When ~Negger created this digital picture, he was practising with compositions, and after 50 hours of painting, it's clear he did a great work. As an homage for an incredible artist called ~Anry, puma and dragon reflects the spirit of David and Goliath, not only because of a dragon being slayed by a puma, but also because of an artist taking a challenge and achieving it... (Suggested by ~Negger and Featured by `skifi)

It's so brilliantly articulated, yet also sad since the death of a dragon pains me so...

Simplicity is the final achievement. It is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art.
