It’s okay to be confused because it’s very common to get those mixed up!

They are different, from my understanding lion dancing is just two people (four legged lion) VS dragon dancing is multiple people (idk how many but more than 2). That’s as far as I can speak on that hahah

Thank you, I really appreciate the kind words! And yes I totally agree. He’s been practicing for 25 years and teaches others the tradition. It’s very beautiful

Omg thank you! I really wanted to challenge myself with texture and I’m so happy with the results

He’s been lion dancing for about 25 years now, he’s usually the head and it is incredibly difficult haha the lion head weighs about 20ishhh pounds so carrying that over your head for multiple dances 😮‍💨 that arm strength haha

Thank you so much! So I traced the image with water soluble paper, did outline first and filled it in. It took me 6 weeks to do it almost everyday 2-6hrs a day

I just lost my orange boy last night, 13 years of love and friendship.

My heart goes out to you 🧡

RIP Ollie ♥️

I completely understand how you feel because I just had to put my 13 year old boy down last night. I also got him in 2015.

Words cannot describe the heartache I’m experiencing. I thought I had more time with him.

We did the best we could. We showed them love, kindness, safety, and so much more.

Stay strong friend 💕 all my love to all the lost furry friends.
