This is posted in response to Illustration Friday. This week's prompt is Legendary. The dragonfly is legendary and mythical throughout the world. In Europe, dragonflies have often been seen as sinister. In East Asia and among Native Americans, dragonflies have a far better reputation. For me they're a sign of a nice hot summer day with a little magic thrown in.

Beautiful design.
Calm peaceful floating feeling here- like flying along with the dragonfly & taking in the scenery below.

this is exquisite, would be a great wallpaper. i love dragon flies, they are almost ethereal.
Love those sweet colours, and the armony in the whole!
Nice. I have red dragonflies that visit me every summer, which I love. I took some good pix of them which are on flickr. :-)
Great take on the challenge.
Lovely and I can feel the breeze too.
Your designs would be great printed on fabric. Have you seen the spoonflower.com website? They will turn designer's surface designs into fabric and they have a fun blog, too.
Another delightful prompt from IF. I thank all of you for your comments and sharing ideas as to what my work lends itself too. It's great learning from others.
Peace.
Lovely color and design.
that's beautiful
By chance I´m finishing a children´s book about a dragonfly. It will be out on may. Yours is a wonderful piece.
