Tale of a dragon


Images property of @stefaniedonau

This post has it all. A short background story of why the author chose dragons as a motive, creative freestyle art and a beautiful original craft to wrap it up. It is obvious that @stefaniedonau has some serious crafting skills and a perfect eye for the details!

I wanted a serene expression on the dragon’s face, as if he entered into complete trust of his own skills and strength, complete trust of the air supporting him in that moment of curling his body into a circle and drawing in his wings. That moment of complete joy-filled tranquility and freedom… - @stefaniedonau

This being only his second post ever on Steemit gives me an impression we might see some more cool things from this author in the future.

Art Explosion Contest: Theme - Life


Images property of @maxwellmarcusart

This piece of art was created by @maxwellmarcusart for an art explosion contest themed "life" and I must say that it's spot on! Using only three colors this author created an excellent drawing which bares a meaningful message:

Never hide your potentials. Live your life to the fullest and show the world what you've got within. -@maxwellmarcusart

Maxwell Marcus has been with us for a little over 4 months now and his Steemit profile is filled with loads of fantastic pen drawings. A huge amount of his posts are original and extremely creative so if you are a fan of art, trust me, you will not regret visiting his page and scrolling around!

Sabaton - Ghost Division (Guitar Cover by Kondzik) nowa wersja


Images property of @konradz16

Last but not least, we have a guitar cover by an amazing player @konradz16! His performance of Sabaton's Ghost division is simply flawless. If you play this video and close your eyes I guarantee you won't be able to tell it's not the original song thanks to this young man's exceptional skills!

I myself have listened through a fair amount of videos that Kondzik posted and I didn't get disappointed one single time. More so I am confident that this player would be able to play just about anything perfectly. My personal favorite is In Flames - In This Life (Guitar Cover by Kondzik).
