The next in my Dragonflies / Dragons and Blooms series is a geranium dragon.
For the red hues, I chose tuscan red, crimson red and poppy red. The greens are close to grass and apple green I think. I just went with what I thought might contrast well as I worked, I didn't go into it with color in mind, barring the red of the flowers.
For some of these, since there are so many colors and variations, I will probably do more than one in the future.

These dragons like to weave themselves into the flower clusters they are named for, being that their red scales look similar. During the day they will occasionally stretch out their wings to help with absorbing heat from the sun. Since they spend most of their lives in these clusters of flowers, they take on the flower's scent as well.
