Daenerys Targaryen / Mother of Dragons


I was hoping to get this finished to coincide with the release of Dance with Dragons yesterday... alas paint drying time had a little something to say about that.

For those who aren't familiar with the name, she is a character from the very popular Song of Fire and Ice books. Although I think Emilia Clarke is doing an outstanding job portraying her in the HBO series, I opted to paint my interpretation of Dany from the books.

I will have this painting on display at San Diego Comic-Con next week. If you are planning on attending please stop by artist alley table FF06 and say hi.

Original is 12" by 18" oil paper on board.
