Somehow there is a magical bond between Chinese culture and dragons. A  Chinese dragon is as majestic as the ancient culture, and just as mystical.

So it’s not surprising that there are people with incredible skills, painting dragons of all different kinds. Maybe most impressive are these one-stroke-paintings in the video below.

The artist paints the head with a fine brush and including wonderful details, and then he switches the small brush, for a big one. With this he starts to paint the body of the dragon in one stroke. Using different angles and speed, he’s able to create the bodies of these mystical yet beautiful creatures. Even though he’s just using one stroke, the dragons body seems to contain endless details.
