A newly reborn phoenix cries out in joy and pain. I've been wanting to post this for ages... Well, better late than never! An Xmas gift in 2005 for my awesome mom. It had to be removed from its frame in order to be photographed; now it's back on the wall. The photo's far from perfect, I know-pieces on black paper are a tricky subject... Since we celebrate Xmas as the rebirth of the Sun (as pre-Christian cultures did) the pic had to involve fire and resurrection.

Silver, white & gold Faber-Castells on black paper.

WOW! Oh my god....You're amazing. This is just beautiful! The detail is amazing. It must have taken you hours! You must have loads of patience to draw something like this...wow.....stunning...

This is gorgeous, and easily one of my favorite pheonixes in the Woods. I certainly admire your eye for fine detail! Also, the colours you chose are fabulous, great job.

I have been wandering through your gallery in awe and can’t seem to find a favorite. I absolutely love your attention to detail. I especially like the smoky look you were able to create with this piece whether that was intentional or no. Thanks so much for allowing me my aesthetic fix with your art. It’s lovely!
