Not so Miniature Bestiaries for Christmas

For Christmas I was asked by my sister to give her children illuminated pieces instead of more toys. She indicated that my nephew loves dragons and my niece loves unicorns. 

I was ecstatic to say yes. 

Both are done on perg with W&N and Holbein gouache. Gold is shell and Holbein. Pieces are roughly 4x6. 

(They were well received!) 

My brother's daughters received pieces of artwork from me as well, but in a more modern style that I haven't included on my blog, as this is dedicated to my medieval works.
