A water dragon



I'm on year-end vacation now, so I'll have more time for this!

Today, I completed this picture of a water dragon from Kerby Rosanes' Mythomorphia coloring book.

I picked purple, my favourite color, for the critter, but the challenge for this piece lay in rendering the water - how to depict transparency. I'm not too satisfied with this one. 

I used my Prismacolor powder blue and pale sage as the base color and then used a deeper blue and deeper green for the darker areas, and white and pale yellow for the parts where light is shooting through the crest of the wave.
