We’ve arrived at the final post of my second Birthstones series, so once again I’ve supersized it (and I even got it posted ‘on time,’ it’s a miracle!). Let’s start with this adorable Turquoise Dragon Heart Pendant by American crafter Kera Minarchin, posting as Micrackin. You can see more in her gallery and Instagram, but…
Happy birthday to all my September-born readers! I’m back with your beautiful blue birthstone basilisks, err, dragons, starting with this fierce beast called Sapphire Dragon for Guerra de mitos by Spanish professional artist Javier Sanamaria Carpio, posting as J-SantamariaCarpio. Javier created this artwork for the 2013 card game War Myths (Guerra de mitos), a game…
Oh dear, where does the time go? I’ve missed some posts, I know, but more about what’s been keeping me away later, let’s get to what’s important — Happy Birthday to my March-born readers! This first epic dragon above is Aquamarine by American deviantartist AcidicArt. I love the pattern on the scales and the intense…
Happy Birthday to all my November-born readers! This month you get two stones, Topaz and Citrine, which can get confused because both are (usually) orange/ yellow stones… so let’s start with this Topaz dragon by the awesome deviantartist Ariel Blyth, posting as Arukanoda (and purchased by fellow deviantartist Livard).

Autumn has officially arrived here in the northern hemisphere as of last Saturday, September 22, which means this upcoming weekend is the end of “Fest,” the Minnesota Renaissance Festival — and this year I will have been lucky (or crazy!) enough to attend every weekend!* I’ve seen a ton of amazing dragon artwork at the…
Couldn’t decide what to do for a short post this week when I discovered today’s featured artist and fell absolutely in love — so with no further ado, this is Earth Dragon Style by French professional artist Lorene Barioz, posting as Dragibuz. The last dragon in her short elemental series from 2016, Lorene writes, “It…
Happy Birthday to all my September-born readers! We have a very blue lineup this month since your birthstone is the sapphire, starting with this gorgeous piece called Wings of Sapphire by U.K. professional artist Joshua Dunlop. He captions this “The Congo Sapphire-Winged Dragon. They live in the thick rainforest of the Congo and are rarely seen. … They…
It’s time to shine in the April AtoZ Challenge 2018, so here is a beautiful Crystal Dragon by professional artist drachenmagier.
