AUGUST CONTEST: Dragonfly
-
Another great one word prompt from Lee, I Love Dragonflys. Ive missed the last two but going to do my best to take part in on this one.
Good luck everyone. -
I love dragonflies! I even already had a dragonfly idea in the works, though I might try and flex my creative muscles a bit more first.
-
Fun fact: Dragonflies are part of a very small number of creatures on earth that are almost completely identical to their prehistoric ancestors for as long as we've had fossils of them!
-
Oh. wow. Dragonfly is more or less my favorite creature :-).
-
My morning began so purposefully..I was even on my way to working on this months prompt. Research side track->> wow.

When I hear "Dragonfly" the first thing that comes to mind is the work of Stephanie Law. If you've never come across her work take a look, it's beautiful.
Thank you for the suggestion; she has gorgeous work. It sort of reminds me of Trina Shart Hyman and James Browne.

@djlambson Woah, that’s very cool! Interesting information and a great resource for dragonfly movement studies. Thanks for sharing
I’m in the research stage for this prompt so I expect I might end up spiralling into a bit of distraction tornado myself today haha -
@chrisaakins This is beautiful.
-
@Laurel-Aylesworth thank you!!! I love your work so thats a huge compliment.

James Browne
Oh nice, I like her illustrations a lot, thanks. James Browne I've been following for a while, he does some fantastic work. Stephanie's art like most peoples is even more spectacular to see in person.
-
@Blitz55 Love her!
-
I learned a few things along the way, thank you in advance for the support!

@amlilui Thank you! The composition has always been the trickiest of challenges for so I really appreciate your comment.

@chrisaakins I like the color play. The bright green with the red contrast definitely leads my eye to the dragon-fly. The rustic colors below are beautiful and varied. Thanks for posting.
