Artist's Comments

A dragon dance through Chinatown, celebrating the Chinese New Year.

Acrylic paints on 20"x30"illustration board - the original painting will be at the Further Confusion 2008 art show.

This painting took approximately 120 hours to complete.

All of the characters depicted are my own original characters - several of them are recurring characters thoughout my artwork - including Cirrus the eastern blue dragoness, Candi the red panda, Antarctica the blue vixen, Echo the genet, Vienna the arctic roo, Kristania(Misty)the ringtail cat, and Ace the black jackal.

This is a fictional Chinatown - the building designs are my own creation - the gateway was inspired by the Chinatown gateway in London, however, and the entire piece was inspired by visiting San Francisco's Chinatown.

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-12-24

It's not easy to list all the reasons we have to feature 'Dragon Dance' by *KaceyM, so we better just let you find them out yourself once you full view it... So much detail everywhere, with a real festive air to the picture. You can almost hear the party going on in the background. (Suggested by ~Kal-aMari and Featured by `skifi)

Fantastic! The city is beautiful, and you put in characters all over the picture. The coloring and shading is phenomenal, and I love the dragon X3

Can't you see the history the suffocating madness
In the land of fallen souls there's nowhere left no place to go

After seeing the WIP stages and how great of detail and effort you put into this masterpiece it'd be wrong of me to not fav it. Thank you for sharing such a great piece of art.

Fate gives everyone a purpose, though we all have somewhat of a choice.
