Behind the words

Description

Heavy weight paper, mopped with tea, coffee and then acrylics and pencil and a little bit of ink. Words and "paper" dragon with ink and the "real" dragon with ink, acrylic and pencil.
The text is the begining of the Beowulf poem. I've choosen this legend because the last quest of Beowulf was to find and fight with the dragon. Has the dragon something to say about the result?
A very interesting work. I'm not used to mix materials. Makes me think about a lot of options.

Hey, this is really cool! Is the Beowulf in the original language? It looks like elvish.
The tears of the paper look really realistic, and I suuuuper like the bold contrast of the blue dragon.

Basically, this is awesome.
