Proud to be a dragon
I did this vent art to release some pressure i feel inside of my chest, a mix of various feelings that push each other harder and harder trying to find a valve or exit.
This one expresses what I feel about my dad, someone I had the luck (bad or good) to have as dad: He wants me to be something like a prize of him, something that doesn't think by himself, however, something good to show around proud. That can't be, because I want to think and belive what my heart tells me to belive because "I'm a dragon", my heart tells me the right decission to take. A dragon is something bad! they are demons! (believed by my dad and many christians).
Why I'm all tied like that? I can obviously break that chains free. Sadly, there are things that hold me back: if I did that, I would have to sleep in the wild, and food won't come in a "tray". Yet, i'm not going to belive the life he's trying to make me thing that's the true one and the best, because that would kill my personallity.
I should draw more x3 Enjoy the pic and look the text less ^^

Hice este "vent art" para liberar la presión que sentía en el pecho, una mezcla de diversos sentimientos que se empujan mutuamente y con más y más fuerza intentando encontrar una salida.
Este dibujo muestro lo que siento con mi padre, alguien que por suerte (buena o mala) tengo como padre: Él quiere que yo sea su "medalla", algo que no piensa por sí pero que es algo para mostrar orguyoso por ahí. Éso no puede ser porque quiero pensar y creer lo que mi corazón me dice porque soy "un dragon", es mi corazón quien guía mis decisiones. ¡Un dragón es algo malo!, ¡son demonios! (Creido por mi padre y muchos cristianos).
¿Por qué estoy atado? obviamente puedo romper las cadenas. Desgraciadamente, hay cosas que me impiden: si lo hiciera, no tendría más que dormir a la entemperie, y la comida no vendría en una "bandeja". Aún así, no voy a creer la vida que me quiere hacer creer que es la verdadera y mejor, porque eso mataría mi personalidad.
Debería dibujar más x3 Disfruta el dibujo y mira menos el texto ^^

shoot few dreams in past had me and few friends ina battle litterly able to contenue the converstaion in said dreams in thephysical world one was an evil dragon in it BUt turned out he was controled it seemed and somthign darker was out there. so not sure what those dreams or what ever was going on. maybe my spirit or somthing was being called apon to protect the breech in the veil or somthing. and to ones that want to say most that dream liek this are nuttys. i dont smoke drink or anything. LOL
Religion often tends to breed hateful piety to a degree that all besides man are deemed evil. I for one cast my vote in for the first poster in saying that this guy will lose more than that pungent slab of a finger if he refuses to wake up from the dream he is living in. Great work dearest Weiss
Bueno, en realidad es la muestra de por qué no lo hago, cuando este seguro de ello no dudare por supuesto.
Se que no todos los padres son buenos, y se que el mio podria ser peor, simplemente me hace sentir mal que en lugar de ser mas optimista y dialogante se cierre mentalmente contra mi y no acepte que yo no quiero ser como el

y no seas como el, no nesesitas q el te diga q hacer con tu vida, en lo unico q deve hacer es mantenerte hasta q puedas mantenerte tu, el no tiene q cambiarte y mas decirte q te deve gustar o no ese no es su dever, si fuera buen padre aceptaria lo q eres y como eres y te daaria bases para guiarte por el buen camino
I am a new fan of your art, I like yours pictures. I think the dragon don't have to say thanks because a drgon is the best thing that make the forest and the life so beautiful, the dragon is for me the only hearth who can save mine of sadness because I think there alive in my mind. Thanks for this beautiful picture.
I agree, this is true art - emotion and meaning captured in a scene.
Parents often make plans for their children, and it CAN be a challenge to break free of that and live your own life. But never give up hope, often that freedom can be gained in small ways. And most of those that believe all dragons are evil say the same of all lizards and snakes, a tradition started by those afraid of things that are different. I have relatives that believe that, yet I am a dragon who keeps and cares for snakes and lizards and still am a christian. Don't let it bring you down that your father believes that.

Many times it is not an easy thing we have to do. Balance between two worlds, two lives...Dragon and Human. There ARE times one can be placed as secondary. The issue is, these forms we have now, the lives we have to live now, are more of a priority. If they weren't, we would still be Dragons. We can and have to adjust to this...for now. Just because we have a Human form does not meant we have to act, think like Humans. We have to conform to this life yes. The point is that we do not ever have to surrender to it. We are what we are within and nothing can or ever will change that.
So, sometime we have to play the Human to live in this world. In our hearts and in our souls, we are forever Dragon! }:=)

Overlord: in both the Japanese and Chinese traditions and religions, dragons are considered as loyal as a dog. The dragons come in the shape of a serpent or a... Dog. Both shapes have unique abilities and concepts. The Japanese believed that a white dragon... Was... The symbol of... Death. Same for Chinese dragons. Ooh, sorry man.
Yeah i knew that about oriental traditions and believings about dragons as kind creatures ^^ i didn't know that about the white-dragon symbology o.o even so, even if they are symbol of death, the death is part of the life itself, i wouldn't say it's the end of itself =3 Thanks! :3
Great piece! A deep metaphor for artists to crack ^_^ ~♥ and if your're still oppressed, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU9Srs04sFU It's a song by Utada Hikaru called Sakura Nagashi. I very beautiful for me and it has helped and given me hope when I need it (she's my artist for times I need an emotional boost) Anyway if you want an English version just put the title and add "english" (I find the lyric can relate to this) Hope it helps, and as Utada says to her followers: "I wish for you love and peace" because these are the little things that everyone needs to find true happiness (don't misunderstand me, love doesn't necessarily mean the couple one, it could be as simple as a friends) ;D
I (think I) know exactly how you feel. Being dismissed as just a fantasy or worse.
I myself am now an atheist and have let go of... actively being dragonkin. But never would I lose my affinity or identity as a dragon.
At some point things like these don't matter anymore is they're real or not. Whether they're "good" or "evil".
They help you, they make you feel good. Because deep down we always feel like we are dragons. Regardless of whether you believe it or not.
Go your own way brother. Anyone who disagrees is probably losing a potentially great friend. *hugs*

Indeed, judge people just because they are (not their actions) or what they like is wrong. I've tried several times to make my dad see that he's looking at me with the wrong eyes but never cared really, and i gave up trying to. As long as my friends like me the way i am, i'll be more than happy :3
Right now i'm not an atheist nor a christian, i'm agnostic (i believe there's a god, even if there's no way we can prove or disprove it), i think it's the most open minded alternative for now. I believe the only evil is hurting other people intentionally. I'm kinda dragonkin too, i even had dreams being my dragon and walking on all fours :3

Your dad may one day yet wake up to what he's actually done. I hope he does.
My dad divorced my mom quite early, and he never was a real dad to me. Eventually he actually apologized for that.
Also that makes you a agnostic theist (you believe there is 'a god', but you acknowledge the fact it's unknown).
Being open minded and agnostic is probably the best way, allowing yourself to change and 'improve' when evidence and information presents itself.
And I agree on your perspective of "evil". Which is actually a strong argument why I find Christianity (just my opinion) rather immoral. As in being tolerant of harm done on purpose by god. (not talking about appropriate punishment)
Being kin is quite clear from your way describing. Both the image and the text.
Though it's a broad concept, we're all brothers in it. And most of us (including myself) have long stories to back it up.
Always love to tell those stories to ones that are interested... Even if I'm very skeptic about them nowadays.
