Pencils Chimera

When I were a wee young lass we (ok, it was my brother’s but we did manage to share as children) had an illustrated book of mythology. Obvs the dragons came first but close on their heels my favourite beast from these tales was the chimera. I drew one once a while back but it was only the heads so, far as I can recall, this here be my first full-body picture of my take on them. More than a slight nod to the Chimera of Arezzo which is one of my favourite pieces of art.
