Tiger and Dragon: by Pale Horse

TigerDragon 1 Tiger and Dragon: by Pale Horse

When I was in Zhangzhou China last year I heard a story about people in rural villages betting on fights between cats and snakes. (Similar to illegal cockfights) These disturbing reenactments were supposed to represent the epic battles between the mythological Chinese dragon and fearless, ancient tigers. I thought this story would make for an interesting piece and took some liberties to show a king cobra to take it a step further.
