A baby dragon with large green eyes explores the forest, its teal and gold scales glistening in the dappled sunlight. Nestled near ancient trees, its sharp, prickly spines give it an air of resilience and wonder. The scene is rich with intricate, whimsical details, reminiscent of a masterful blend of Paul Barson and Kadir Nelson’s styles. A close-up reveals the dragon’s textured skin, each scale crafted with precision, as it curiously interacts with the forest’s enchanting flora and fauna.
