✨ Happy New Year 2023!
I wish you with this illustration strength and courage against all the "dragons" who might be on your way in 2023. Can you see the numbers in the silhouettes?

A digital painting illustration of a wide angle view on a landscape: a swamp in the mist, a half dead tree in the shape of a 'two' on the left, a arch shaped like '0' crossed by a character on a unicorn (it's Pepper on a donkey with a plunger on his head, carrot, her cat sits in the back), a "2" is a giant black dragon, and the "3" is the tail of the dragon. The whole scene has clear silhouette of "2023".

I think embrace the Dragons, they are rarely as scary as we think. They are just misunderstood 🐲🐲

@davidrevoy It inspires my imagination. Thank you. Happy new year!

@davidrevoy Mastodon needs an additional “I love this with all my heart” button!

Have a great 2023, David!

@davidrevoy thank you david, and the same to you!

@davidrevoy That is beautiful. I'm a writer and I, also, find it inspirational.

@davidrevoy lovely painting! But a small thing bugs me. The tail of the dragon looks like it would hurt. Not an expert, but I think it might have got it's tail stuck in a very heavy gate to its secret vault where it keeps all the treasures. 😆

David Revoy

@lx242 I had to stretch things a bit to make it to shape like a good "3" 😉

dwardoric

@davidrevoy Wonderful! Thanks a lot and also best wishes for the year!

David Revoy

@newsorpigal I just wanted to find a good shape for the '0' of 2023 but with the decoration and all the steps to reach it, it could really work as a portal or a gate to somewhere else, probably guarded by this dragon.

I really like this illustration VERY much! Love dragons, wizards, unicorns and all this stuff.
Have a good year 2023! ⚒️

David Revoy

@HistoPol Ha, right. I could probably draw a Dragonrabbit. 😉

@davidrevoy than you, David! Your work is amazing and I'm looking forward to the New Year!

@davidrevoy

I think I can handle a dragon or two after this year!

Thanks for a great image!

Psychic Avocado

@davidrevoy I like it. Definitely see everything 🤔 it's Very inspiring

Adrian Morales

@davidrevoy Yes, I sure can! Happy New Year! 🎉🎆🎄🎊🐉

@davidrevoy this is really speaking to me-may I save it to display on my iPad as the background?

David Revoy

@TeaSipper Thanks! And sure, I share a high resolution version in a follow up post here framapiaf.org/@davidrevoy/1096 with an open license. I'm sure it will looks good on the high resolution display of a device like that!

Danial

@davidrevoy Happy New Year and keep on the good work!

Max/W99

@davidrevoy I like it so much, especially the person on the horse (?).

David Revoy

@W99 Thanks! If you want to know more what horse it is, it's a reference to this episode (but in silhouette, and from far distance, just a little cameo): peppercarrot.com/en/webcomic/e

@davidrevoy took a few seconds to notice it. Without the last tail i wouldn't have noticed it.

@davidrevoy
yes I can ... a few maths people have noted the factorisation of 2023 as 7 times 17 squared ,,, but we refer to the year as "twenty twenty-three" ... here's the factorisation of the spoken number "2 squared times 5 then the ninth prime number 23" ... good luck I hope its a great year for u

My hometown Geldern has a long history of slaying dragons since 878 AD. We know how to handle them.

@davidrevoy this may show what we will face in 2k23 👀

David Revoy

@raph False, it's always the year of the "dragons" in my astrology. 😉

MrFarland

@davidrevoy I love this so much! My daughter is an artist and recently got accepted to Drexel Universy for animation. Their mascot is a dragon. It’s beautifully fitting.

Maxi :coffeebeans: :comfyblobcat:

@davidrevoy love the alt text, I never would have noticed the "unicorn" otherwise!

Witek Kowalik

@davidrevoy od course they'll be dragons ahead, we will slay them if we must, but I'd rather avoid that. Conquer then with love, and befriend is much better. Would you not want a dragon for a friend?

RealGravitas

@davidrevoy Some dragons are helpful. Lest we forget.
Cool work! 😺
