Library Guardian Dragon

A clever little dragon balances on a tall stack of books. His wings stretch wide like big paper pages, and his bright eyes follow the open words. He sets his claws softly on a book so the paper stays safe. Beside him, a candle burns steady, wax dripping like tiny frosting down the holder.

Neat rows of scales trail from his chin to his tail, which curls around the bottom pile. Rolled scrolls press against the spines, and skinny bookmarks peek out at funny angles. He tilts his head with a calm grin, ready to keep watch over every story in the pile.

Fun Fact!

The ability to shapeshift is a common power for dragons in folklore, allowing a dragon to appear as a human to trick or interact with people.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Blend two greens on the scales, adding darker shades along the belly and tail edges.
  2. 2 Shade the wings from dark near the bones to light at the tips for a soft stretch.
  3. 3 Glow up the candle with yellow and orange, then lightly warm nearby pages and claws.
  4. 4 Give each book spine a different color and add tiny title lines with a fine pen.
