"A Confabulation of Dragons"                                                                                                                                                                           Oil on canvas,  46" x 34"

I have always been fascinated by the words that have become the names for groups of various types of animals, such as a gaggle of geese, a pod of whales, or a pride of lions, which are some of the more commonly used terms. But there are also those like a mob of kangaroos, a convocation of eagles and two of my favorites: a skulk of foxes and a parliament of owls.

In that vein, I was wondering what a group of dragons might be called, hence "A Confabulation of Dragons.
"

This original oil painting was done as a private commission.

Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil

What do you expect from a Pig but a Grunt?
The Fox Guarding the Hen House
Sleeping Beauty
A Parliament of Owls
The Country Mouse and the City Mouse
