Pegasus!
.
"In Classical Greek mythology, the god Poseidon is identified as the father of Pegasus. Pegasus was caught by the Greek hero Bellerophon near the fountain Peirene with the help of Athena and Poseidon. Pegasus allowed Bellerophon to ride him in order to defeat the monstreous Chimera, which led to many other exploits."
.
I've always been a big fan of Greek Mythology and after listening to Stephen Fry's Myth i thought i'd draw the mytical flying horse. I hope you like it:)
Swipe for color!

I got the opportunity to make a new mural at the @guneysdelights_ Turkish winestore!
I had three days time to write a big text with a nice frame around it. This was quite the challenge because it was impossible to project the text so i had to do it all by hand! The frame is obviously inspired by wine and grapes but i tried to incorporate some medeterenian plants aswell! Let me know what you think!:)

Colored vs black and white.

I usually don't color my drawing because i like the contrast in black and white drawings, but its also because i just lack the experiece. For this one I used watercolors and tried to not make the colors to bright. It turned out better then expected and i will defenitely try again!
