"Dragon Skin," by Connie Kleinjans


Dragon Skin
by Connie Kleinjans
12x36x1.5
mixed media and acrylic on gallery-wrapped canvas

The title for this piece came from Guy Magallanes, an extraordinary watercolorist I have the privilege to know. When I showed it to him, he looked at the texture and the iridescence and said it looked like dragon skin. The description stuck with me. I figured there was a reason, and it became the title of the piece.
