Mercer Mayer Dragon

I really didn't want to draw a dragon, so I pulled out every book from my bookshelves that I thought might relate to dragons somehow, with the idea of looking through them for inspiration (see: "procrastination"). One of the books was Mercer Mayer's "Little Critter's The Fussy Princess"- a story Little Critter tells his fussy little sister to make her fall asleep at bedtime. It has a dragon. I ultimately decided to hell with drawing my own dragon, this illustration was super cute, and would take a couple weeks of Sunday mornings to embroider, so I traced and went for it.
