Draconic Notions: Mission and Goals

 We've always approached art with the mindset of wanting our work to brighten someone's day or bring a smile to their face. Dragons have always brought me comfort and helped me weather through some rough patches in my life, and I want the merchandise I create and offer to be able to bring someone else that same feeling of warmth and comfort.
 We plan on creating more than just cute and comfy apparel, but what we have planned for down the road will take time and work to bring to fruition. One of the bigger projects we're working on and would like to bring to life include dragon plushies, because plushies are wonderful for hugging and cuddling with when you need a little pick-me-up. And what can be better than a little dragon plush to keep you company throughout the day?

About the Artist

 I'm Lady Skrykarie (pronounced Scrai-kuh-ree), though I tend to go by Lady Skry or Skry for short. I'm a casual freelance artist that just wants to spread some cute, fluffy dragons to the world.

  My work is inspired by the tales of magic and fantasy I grew up on. I began drawing when I was little, doodling little dragons or fluffy critters in the margins of my notebooks or any loose pages of paper I could find. I am mainly self taught, with most of what I’ve learned being from years of practice, experimenting with different art mediums, and from art books my family would gift me.

 We created Draconic Notions with the same mindset we have for all of our artwork: we create with the hope that we can help brighten someone's day. We hope the merchandise we create and offer will help someone continue to find a reason to smile and give them a bit of comfort in their day to day.

Personal Projects

  In between working on commissions, adminning for The Sled Team, and now creating designs for merch; I am also working on a world building project. Though the project itself will be separate from merch, there are some merchandise ideas and plans that require portions of the project to be solidified before I can work on bringing them to life.

  What is this project exactly? We're working on writing down the world and universe my OCs are from. This includes explaining how magick works there, describing various creatures one may encounter whether one adventures behind the veil or not, and lots of other information. The long term goal for the project is to get everything compiled into a ttrpg format, so that others may explore the worlds I've been dreaming of since I was very little.

  As it currently stands, we are uncertain just how long this project will take to reach a finalized state as we are essentially building a tabletop game system and it's related universe from scratch. That being said, we're extremely excited to share it and would be happy to open the system for playtesting to folks once we are confident that all the information has been compiled and the system is ready for testing. 

   Income from merch here allows me to spend more time on progressing this project or improving my skills, and every bit given is always greatly appreciated.
