[Picture] Dragon art thief exposed

[Picture] Dragon art thief exposed


Today I learned from Alex Wargacki that he is the artist who drew the work
below.  In my repost of the "The NQCBGT Official List of Dragon Art" it is 
attributed to "Tua Xiong".  I had the same attribution in my own 
collection.  I have seen this work and the one below it in many places 
either with no artist's name or with Tua Xiong on it.  I had NO idea, 
this work was being misrepresented.  I make profound apologies to the true 
artist!  If anyone should find Tua Xiong's email address, Alex would very 
much like to have it.  The maintainer of NQCBGT would like to have it 
also, as would I.  On the other hand, with the global warming problem, 
maybe it is better if we don't get it.

Diane

Here's the other work; what do you think?  Do you think someone who could do
this would steal someone else's work?
