Doodle #69 in Doodle a Day

Watched Turandot on pbs today and in the middle of all their incredible set pieces were Chinese dragons. Figured out the general line of the body and decided to try it out.

Blue black ink on rice paper, goat hair brush

JoyceHaving kicked the man in the balls and relieved him of his belongings, Joyce wasn't quite sure what to do next. She could run, but he might come after her the next minute. If she tied him up here, in the middle of nowhere, he might be eaten by wolves; or starve to death. Besides, she didn't have any rope. She could kill him... perhaps. The thought left a bitter taste in her mouth.

'What am I to do with you?' she sighed.

'Well,' he groaned while giving her a look that sent shivers down her spine, 'You can run, but that won't help you, cause I will find you! So you just wait another few minutes until I get back up again - and I mean úp- and t
