Valery Tatar
"Dragon Kiss"

2001

About the Item

The painting "The Kiss of the Dragon" is the final fifth work in the cycle "Come and see". In Asia, there is a myth that the one whom the Dragon kisses will have strength, luck and invincibility of the spirit throughout his life. Guided by this legend, I painted this picture in 2001. As you know, the Dragon is mental in its essence and has incorporated all the signs of the zodiac into its image, we know that all signs of the zodiac exist in nature and only the Dragon remains a mystery. In the East and Asia, they believe in the power of the Dragon and deify him.Each of the five works that entered this cycle tells one or another episode that excited me when I got acquainted with Ancient myths or Scripture. After all, the study of these materials gives fantasy and imagination to write my paintings.
