Welcome to the fourth installment of my feature on dragons at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival! (If you missed any of the earlier posts, you can see them here.) Let me offer you some refreshment in one of these fantastic pieces of drinkware by John Coiner Pottery while I tell you about the shop… John Coiner Pottery doesn’t…
It has been a difficult week to write, as I’m sure you understand. I am heartbroken for the victims and all the people of Barcelona, Spain, after yet another senseless terror attack there on Thursday, and that comes right on the heels of the neo-Nazi violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend. But as I tried…
Happy Valentine’s Week everyone! I found some lovey-dovey dragons to share in celebration of the holiday done by one of my all-time favorite creators, Russian artist Alvia Alcedo. This first image is a cute trio of dragons called Find Your Heart, and I just love the colors and all the little details in the bottles!…
We had a wonderfully busy Sunday, so here is Love Of My Life by Portugese photographer David, posting as EdgeOfBeauty. After brunch with my father, we had a fun birthday party for the love of my life, my husband, with all our closest friends, and afterwards we watched the season premier of The Walking Dead as well!…
My husband is the greatest, as evidenced by this lovely anniversary gift I received today — another dragon sculpture from one of my favorite artists, Lindy Briggs of How Many Dragons! This is an Emerald and an Opal birthstone lovebird pair, each holding the other’s stone (and heart… awww). The lighting wasn’t great when I…
This is a piece called I’ll do my dragon in the rain by Russian deviantartist Drkav. I chose it because it looks a little like the dragon is crying, and today is a tough day for me. Exactly one year ago this morning, I lost my furdaughter Amara to cancer. I posted a poem I…
Well, it’s the end of the month and time once again for a Random Writing, a chance for me to post something that’s unrelated to dragons or either of my WIPs, just a piece of my own writing from the past that I want to share with the world. And today I’m going to share a really personal…
Today’s first dragon is the beautiful Umbrella Pride Dragon by American artist Kaenith. I’ll share more of their wonderful Pride Dragons series next week Thursday for the start of my Pride Rainbow Weekend (6/23-6/26), so stay tuned for that, but I needed to share this dragon today. Even though I’ve had a few days to…
I had to change up my post tonight to honor the victims of the horrible terror attack that took place in Orlando just over twenty-six hours ago at the Pulse nightclub, and I found this beautiful art called Love for Pulse, Love for Orlando by American deviantartist RefiBones. Even though I’m more than fifteen hundred…
For Valentine’s Day, I looked at a lot of “heart dragons” and this was my favorite, Dragon Heart 03-15-07 by deviantartist Zurniel. I found that this type of design is really popular, but I liked this one best, even with the artist’s extra marks. I’ll add a few runners-up below — hope you all had a lovely…
