Pygmy Dragon

Pygmy Wyvern
Medium: digital painting

Although small in size, Pygmy Wyverns are not members of the Fairy Dragon family. They are technically wyverns, as they lack forelegs. Their poison-barbed tail gives them the nickname Scorpion Drake or Scorpion Dragon. They live in hot, sandy deserts, and hunt by burrowing beneath the sand and pricking their prey with their barbs. The vemon is deadly and fast-acting, although not exceptionally painful. Even larger dragons give Pygmy Wyverns a large berth.

Pygmy Wyverns have been domesticated and bred by humans to lack their poison barbs. Domesticated Pygmies are about the size of small house cats or large squirrels. They enjoy being up high and will perch on their owners' shoulders if given the chance. They are very playful and intelligent.

Prints

Linocut is a printing technique where a block of linoleum is cut away to create a picture. The parts cut away will appear white (or will allow an already-existent color to show through). To get multiple colors with one piece of linoleum, you have to first cut away your whites, print, then cut away whatever you don't want to be your next color, print, and so on.

Monoprinting is a printing technique where ink is applied to a flat surface such as a piece of glass and then brushed and/or scratched away to create lighter areas. It gives one or maybe two prints.
