I have sculpted two griffin chicks to join the griffin family. This little chick is still not quite finished, you can see the wax I have used to patch her up on the  eyelid and foot. she is cast in plaster, the brownish coloring is  tea  that I brush onto the raw plaster to help me see details while I am carving..

I love the way his wings are to small to carry his little body at this age!2

:-) Melody Pena replies: " He has little casings on his feathers too, like a chick with undeveloped feathers . It will be awhile before he can fly! Thank you for visiting"

Oh My Gosh. I absolutely LOVE this! i collect anything that has to do with dragons and griffins? Do you sell this or any of your art in general? I REALLY like this one though. if you do sell them please tell me where!!!!!!!


:-) Melody Pena replies: " Well... since you asked, yes, I do sell these! Go to Windstoneeditions.com and click on the button that says "M. Pena store" (or do a search on Windstone Editions). We have an online store with some of these little griffins in it. You might also enjoy our crazy forum, if you are a dragon and griffin fan:
