Artist's Comments

"His heart contracted, jerking him back. Jan recognized a gryphon curled upon its side, wings folded, limbs drawn against its body. Its head was turned to one side, beak tucked beneath one wing. Its eyes were closed."

[From The Firebringer Trilogy by Meredith Ann Pierce]

#1 of a series I am momentarily working on and that will keep me busy for the next couple of months ...

A3 (297mm x 420mm)
Coloured pencil (Faber Castell - Colours of Nature)
A little Photoshop work to get it right for the web and quite a couple of nerves to stitch it together in Photoshop - I should really think about buying an A3-scanner!

Detail shots can be found here.

Please read journal entry for further details.

See 2nd of the series here.

Ah-hah! I recognized Firerbringer at first glance (so my eyes aren't that bad, yet). I can't wait to see more of your efforts with the series.

Thank you! I like the tail best, as well. It gave me quite a headache, I've had to redo it several times but I like how it turned out -
