dragons: fierce or cute????
(playing cards illustrated by the awesome illustrator Kevin Hawkes)
I absolutely love this guy's illustrations, and I own these cards and one or 2 of his books. Isn't his dragon funny? So what am I aiming for? I am not a SCIFI or fantasy type of guy. I thought of putting up a picture of dragons from GAME OF THRONES with their barely clothed owner…but, meh. I don't give a sh!t about that. I read about 2.5 of the GAME OF THRONES books and was too bored to continue.
SO, what I am saying is when I like the occasional dragon, it has to be a little funny, a little cute, not cutesy, right? I have tried SO HARD to like fantasy and SCIFI but really prefer mystery novels and always have. BUT, like I say, I like cute, not cutesy, in dragons or anything :)
With these mugs I think I have done that…have a great Tuesday!

Yep, I think you nailed it with those... nice glaze too
Would like to follow your blog but can't see where to sign up?
Those are great dragons, now you’ve got me thinking about adding baby dragons to my line of dragon pots.
I love your friendly dragons. Jeff watches Game of Thrones... I sleep through it.
Ha. The difference between Cute and Cutsie...the latter belongs to Cupie Dolls, I think. Do you have memory that far back?
