Description
I have painted this Dragon Sumi-e for babies born in the Year of the Dragon in 2024.
I have seen many dragon paintings and drawings, but most of them look too fierce. So I came up with a happy dragon which is perfect for the nurseries of "dragon babies".
At the top right is my Chinese calligraphy for the word "dragon".
2024 is a Wood Dragon Year. Wood represents calmness and reliability whileDragons represents authority, leadership and good fortune. This indicates that a Wood Dragon will lead towards a successful life.
2024 is a year of the Wood Dragon, starting from February 10th, 2024 (Chinese New Year) and ending on January 28th, 2025 (Chinese New Year's Eve). The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar, and the start of the year is based on the cycles of the moon.
The Chinese zodiac assigns an animal to each year in a repeating twelve-year cycle, and this year is the Year of the Dragon.
People born in the following years belong to the Chinese zodiac Dragon: 2024, 2013, 2000, 1988, 1976, 1964, 1952, 1940, 1928, 1916, 1904.
