Digital painting / illustration made in Krita by ABluSkittle: Was messing about on stream trying to paint some blue and orange clouds at sunset and then put a dragon in it. Wanted to try and combine a few things together to make the dragon. So I merged a bat, rhino, porpoise and Deinonychus together. Then put a cat on it! Painted live on: Twitch.tv/ABluSkittle Human art (No AI)

I wanted to paint some clouds and hide a cat in it.
