Zombie Dragon Queen

To feel powerful and in control is a rare feeling in today’s world, in ancient cultures and some modern it is a cultural norm to attach oneself to an idol. In japan tattoos represent a hero that one wants to embody; man and woman alike adorn themselves in heroic imagery in hopes that they can live up to the heroes that they bare on their body. This artwork from Zyralynn is no different it’s a representation, a reminder that she is strong and powerful. More than that to her it is an ideal to live up to in moments of weakness and when she feels powerless, she can turn to this imagery and remember that she is strong and powerful within. Eleiden is the name of the personification of Zyralynns strength, she is a Necromancer dragon an entity of raw power. With a strong attachment to death and the abstract power of that feeling this artwork is a perfected self-portrait. If we are honest with ourselves, we all strive to become better and hold within us a deeper meaning and a dream of the heroic, this image is that to the artist. A perfected self-portrait meaningful on levels far beyond its visual beauty a window into the soul of the creator. Something that takes true bravery to put onto paper shown to the viewer in a way that can truly be appreciated both on the surface beauty, but also on the deeper meaning both dark and provocative.
