Nebula dragon is one of my personal digital paintings. I loved the idea a cosmic creature.
✨ The ethereal beauty of space and a dragon drifting among planets and stars.
🎨 Digital painting: smartphone sketch and first draft (drawing app ArtflowStudio on SNote9), Wacom Cintiq & Photoshop for final editing. Size: 3600×5000 pixels.
How long does it take to finish a painting? In this case, it took 3 years. I created the sketch, lineart and draft color in 2022, during that month of January spent creating one dragon after another for the “Dragonary” challenge established by Matt Stawicki. Then the painting remained there, and I always promised myself to fix it, to finish it somehow. And here we are. It’s June 2025 and I have finally completely taken over both the background and the dragon, trying not to lose the personality of this fascinating creature that sails among the clouds of dust suspended between the worlds.
