"In 2012 began a new era, an era of peace, freedom and magic!
You will need time to discover the changes on this world, and we need time to help you to discover the changes.
But we are flying around the world, you can't see us with your human eyes, but you can see us with your heart!
We will bring the magic back to you,
just believe in us,
just believe in our work,
just believe in yourself!

We will need time,
you will need time,
the world will need time,
but the hope dies last, and we know that some of you go our path already and believe in us.
Some of you we choose to help us with our work.
They are showing pictures, showing poems, showing with their soul that it exsist more than you can see with human eyes... but with your heart!

We need you, we need all help we can get to create the new world of peace and magic.
Just believe,
just believe
and you will see the new world and will be a part of it!"

This picture I drew based on a dream I had few weeks ago.
I was in the dragonland again and saw a lot of dragons around the blue fire of magic. Much more than on the picture!
Every dragon took a little bit from the fire and flyed away, flyed away to bring the magic back into our world...
The golden dragon said to me that I should do the same to use the fire to draw one of my most magical pieces...
And here is it!
I am a hopeless dreamer, I believe in dragons, I believe in my dream, I hope with my heart and soul that the people learn to live in peace and harmony together, with the nature ... and maybe with more magic in this world

Decide what you want to believe, I accept all beliefs! My motto is: If you want that other accept your belief, so accept other beliefs too!
And I think all beliefs are wonderful in their kind, if your believe in them with your heart!

Thank you for giving me the pleasure to share this picture with you, I am happy to be a member on deviantArt!

With Love,
Gewalgon

If you are interested - here you can see how I drew this picture:

About the dragons (from left to right)

Blue dragon: Dragon of Water

Green dragon: Dragon of Air/Wind

Golden dragon: Dragon of Spirit

Brown dragon: Dragon of Earth

Red dragon: Dragon of Fire

- inspired by this picture he wrote:
_{"It's a goblet of fire! The fire that burns in the soul of each of us, tall and bright in some, more humble in others. Burning eternally, safe from being put out by rain and wind, malice or even death. The fire that drives us forward, defines us, makes us whole.

It's a goblet of magic! The magic that pulses through the veins of this world, the magic that influences every single event in this universe, from the flight of a dragonfly to the clouds floating on the sky to each sunray sent us by the sun. The magic bringing both this world both order and chaos, light and darkness, good and evil.

It's a goblet of life! Life, the ultimate cooperation of all elements. Rocks that walk and dance, water rebelling against the forces of gravity, fire able to save food for worse times instead of consuming it blindly, air with a plan better than simply roaring high above the lands as a strong wind. The perfect balance of everything present in the universe.

It's a goblet of everything defining us.. and more. It's a raised flag of everything worth living for, a symbol of the true appearance of our world. The essence of both dragonkind and humanity."}

To start off, this is an amazing piece of art. The colors are bright, the shading is amazing, the anatomy is perfect, the shadowing is brilliant, and the overall theme is marvelous.

Every detail of the dragons is noticeable. The scales, the hairs, and other small details are so amazing. The bodies are pretty much perfect. The dragons are similar by their eye color, body type, and facial expressions meaning there is unity. What makes them unique is their colors and extra details.

The shading is amazing and so is the lighting.

The fire is even amazing!!

You must have some of the most amazing dreams to have dream of images like this.

This is an amazing piece of art. Keep up the hard work. I will continue to look for your amazing art.

this is absolutely beautiful and awe-inspiring. i love the visual impact that each dragon gives the viewer, as well as the feeling of power that flows from it. the shading in particular impresses me, partially because i have such a difficult time with it.

i also like that the eyes are the same for each dragon because it makes them look united in their purpose. the individual dragon scales look amazing, and the whole picture leaves me breathless.
the idea for this drawing came in a dream, you say? lucky! my dreams are never this exciting.....what i wouldn't give to have dragons inspire me in my sleep!
