SciFi and Fantasy Art Songgryphons on Magnolia Twigs by Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel)

Finally! A new and long-promised songgryphon painting!

I painted this for my parents in law. They needed something beautiful for their new dining room. Those large, pink flowers of the magnolia were just the right thing for this pinkish-purple wall - and those twings were just the right place for some more songgryphons! Oh, and I loved painting dewdrops again.

These are Red-Tailed Songgryphons (Gryphulus canorus phoenicurus), modelled of the Common Redstart or Gartenrotschwanz.

Prints are available at Ellen Million Graphics. :)
