I was inspired by a friend who works for the Save the Swans Foundation, helping to ensure the survival of baby swans every year after farmers have flooded their nesting grounds. His diligent efforts have saved many little lives and, when I discovered that he was born in the year of the Dragon, I couldn't resist the urge to draw an image of his amazing spirit. I hope this will inspire others out there to appreciate the delicate balance between mankind and nature.
