I’m excited to share with you all my most recent piece I created last month titled “The Dragon’s Share”, watercolor & ink. This piece resonates with me because some of you may know, I’m a bourbon guy and it’s about time I painted something that resonates with that. Instead of a treasure hoard this dragon’s hoard is a bourbon cellar set in his cave. The title is a playoff the bourbon term, The Angel’s Share, which means the portion of bourbon that evaporates through the oak barrel during aging — roughly 3–5% per year in Kentucky. The name comes from the idea that the angels are taking their portion as the spirit matures.
I wanted to give it that feeling as if you just opened the door to a bourbon cellar/cave and there he was in all his hoarding glory.
This is one of my favorite pieces I’ve done in awhile!!!
