Dragon in distance (2025)Oil painting
by Yue Zeng

I’ve always wanted to paint some creatures from ancient mythology. Dragon is a very good one. And as you may know, Chinese dragon doesn’t have wings. Yes they can fly and swim and go wherever they want without wings.

In Chinese culture, dragon is often related to water element. They always come close to water such as lakes, rivers, waterfalls and seas. When I found out a reference photo of a peaceful lake, the thought of creating a dragon in distance oil painting quickly emerged.

Although I tried my best to match the digital image the same as actual painting but the color may vary due to different monitor and monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact.
Hope you enjoy this one. :D
