💎 The Blue Crystal

I continue my drawing training and sometimes I push the rendering of a test and finalize it, like in this one.
I'm using almost no ref' to train my ability to predict color and light by imagination. Among my new skill, I'm now more confident at drawing and designing men. I can also better predict overexposed light areas and strong sunlight. It feels great to do progress.

A digital painting illustration in a fantasy setting. The scene happens in what's seams to be an abandonned temple that has a pond of water. Many plants and tress invaded this temple, and the scene feels like in the middle of a very sunny jungle. A young blond boy with a colorful trouser sit on the edge of the water pond, he has a large blue crystal piece in one of his hand. It's glowing. The magical object attracts a dragon from the deep of the pond. His massive blue head justs get out of the water. His eyes has a blue glow of the same color than the crystal. The dragon and the object looks somehow connected.

@davidrevoy That is amazing! If that was a book's cover, I would want to read its story.
I imagine the dialogue in this scene starting with the dragon, asking "Why have you awaken me, my son?"

@marcr Thank you. That's a powerful first sentence to start a novel here.

I'll be glad to see these characters having a longer story together.
