Celestial Dragon, originally uploaded by Citrinepoint.
Dragon of luck
Celestial Emperor
Guardian
I did a google for a reference while doing this and found out that the Phoenix, Dragon, White Tiger and Turtle are the four guardians of the compass within Chinese legend.

The Guardians of the South and the East have now come to me in my paintings. Maybe Tiger and Turtle will be next.
If you like this work you can still buy a print on Imagekind.
