Sometimes, when going for a walk, perhaps late in the evening, we come across pieces of wood lurking in hedgerows which could easily be mistaken for some strange creature. I have a whole box full which live with me at home.
I will start by introducing them to you and we can draw and paint from them objectively first and then let our imaginations go, perhaps telling a story through anthropomorphisation, such as that of St. George and the Dragon. Many painters have illustrated the story of St George and the Dragon, Paolo Ucello (1470), Raphael (1505), Rogier van der Weyden (1432), Gustave Moreau (1889) to name a few, and dragons exist in many other cultures especially in the east where they are sometimes protective rather than threatening.
