A lone unicorn stands up against the oppression of evil.
But is that the case??
We listen to our stereotypes, and interpret the image as the image is portrayed. Maybe we judge too quickly. Do we have all the information? Do we really know which one is evil, and which is good?
How do you know that the dragon is not actually clinging to that rock in fear? Maybe the unicorn has gone beserk, and is going to attack the dragon. This is fantasy after all. How are we to know that the unicorn doesn't have some magical power?
Yes, the piece looks like it should be interpretted with the dragon as evil, and the unicorn good. But again, what if i, the artist am biased? What if i purposefully want you to interpret the scene in this way?
This basically all boils down the old phrase of 'don't judge a book by it's cover'. Especially if you don't know all the facts, and are just assuming. I myself have assumed things about people before, only to find out later that my assumptions are completely wrong.
So, be careful what you think. Or you may end up siding with the evil yourself.... without even realising.

Agreed
90% of movies that have a dragon, either the dragon is evil or a devil... HTTYD seems to have a turning point. Eragon is another good movie.
I dislike the fact with how dragons are always considered evil, which is why I have an interest in Dragons and are inspired to set an approach in my up and coming cartoon. If I had something to say, Dragon Hunting MUST be outlawed. No wonder they attack us and we make all these stereotypical lies. We, attacked them. Wait, what were we talking about?

GREAT ARTWORK!!
I have 3 things to say:
1) GREAT ARTWORK!!!
2) I have this same vision about what is evil and what is good. One day I saw a little post on a Web Page about this vision of what is evil and what is good. And now I tell to everyone about this kind of vision, because it has changed my life (dramatically, no?).
3) Finally someone noticed that not all the dragons are bad. And I have something very important to say..................DRAGONS RULE!!!!!!!!!!
THE END

Realy cool!
I had the same idae of something good looking being bad and vise-versa. YOu drew you idea, and i wrote a story on mine. This picture is a perfect example of the old saying 'To assume is to make and Ass out of You and ME.' and other siilar ones. Great job!
