SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Chimera

An illustration for a joint project with Elfwood writer Brian Buckley;  ”A Field Guide to Fantasy Creatures”. In this groundbreaking work, the creature is discribed thusly: Chimera - Created on a dare by a drunken Zeus, the chimera has the head of a lion, the body of a goat, the tail of a snake, the social skills of a three-year-old, the aesthetic appeal of a dying toad, the ego of Donald Trump, and the e-mail address of practically everyone in Crete. It is universally disliked, except on Halloween, at which time its candy intake accounts for one-third of Hershey's total profit margin.
