AHHH TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY! Bakery Dragon hits shelves!!!! Very last chance to pre-order :’) Thank…

The book cover of “The Bakery Dragon” by Devin Elle Kurtz features a small, dark-red dragon sitting on a stone pathway outside a bakery window, with his wings spread wide, illuminated pink with the light. Inside the bakery window we see all kinds of breads — bagels, loaves, rolls, croissants, baguettes, and more. The little dragon is gazing longingly at the bread. The title “The Bakery Dragon” is purple and blue, and shaped like a bakery window sign at the top.ALT

AHHH TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY! Bakery Dragon hits shelves!!!! Very last chance to pre-order :’) Thank you all SO MUCH for your support in the lead up to the release - and all the way back from 2021 when I first painted this little guy in the rain!

The Dragon Dance

In this digitally painted fanart of Avatar the last Airbender, we see aang and zuko back to back in the scene from "The Firebending Masters." They are doing the dragon dance, with the orange and purple dragons swirling around them on all sides! ALT

In this digital painting, a large red dragon has broken into a convention exhibit hall from above. The dragon has made a hoard of gold merchandise atop vendor booths! The hoard consists of all sorts of convention merchandise, like plushies, toys, and figures. On the floor, we see two vendors, carrying in boxes of merchandise and card readers. They are laughing at the disaster that has taken place, and taking photos of the dragon. There's a panicked staff member on the phone, waving his hands about wildly trying to explain the situation. ALT

I painted the official Dragon Con 2024 shirt art! Oh no — a dragon broke into the exhibit hall and made itself a hoard of gold… merchandise?!


I’ll have 100 hand-signed, limited edition fine art prints of this piece with me at Dragon Con this year! Find them at table 401 in the Pop Art Alley!

Freeing the Beach Spirits

A girl with black hair and a dark blue, white spotted cape stands atop a large rocky formation. The scene takes place in the late afternoon on a sparkling beach. The girl is using golden magic to conjure big, golden, sparkling manta ray spirits from all around her. They swirl in the air and fly away. In the foreground are rocks covered in little sparkling sea creature spirits like starfish.ALT
