I drew this twenty years ago, with prismacolor pencils, using only the grey colors. I'm very fond of this type of drawing; a highly textural figure, with a plain background,but unfortunately,if one spends all their time drawing like this, one never learns to draw backgrounds, and foregrounds! I have lots to learn!

Hi Melody! About 8 years ago I bought a beautiful print of a unicorn in front of a tree, with a rabbit to the right, leaping out of the frame. It was signed M. Peña, and dated 1981. I just recently rediscovered it and put it up on my wall and was curious to find out who the artist was. Looking at your work, in particular this drawing, I’m sure that I have a print by you, and I just want to say I’ve enjoyed it for years. You’re quite a gifted artist, and I love your detailed fantasical creations.

Cheers!

I am sorry if I never responded to this comment!

Yes, that is one of my old prints. I am glad that you enjoy it! Thank you so much! "

I bought a print of yours today at a garage sale. I love it. It is dated 1981. LOL that is the year I started dating. It is a family of flying lions. I am going to cut it into a wooden puzzle. I think it is fantastic. I hope I can do it justice.

:-) Melody Pena replies: "cut it into a puzzle? sounds interesting!"

You are incredible...i might just leave my jaw on the floor to save having to constanly pic it up again!

This is really good, you’re just as good at drawing. The details and realism of this creature is great!

What does it eat? I ask because it has a horse/cow like head (herbivore) but feet with claws and pads (whcih I associate carnivores with). I really like it. It looks friendly

Simply great, love the texture of the fur and the shadings1

I think I remember coming across a sculpture of this, or something close, years ago. It inspired (inspires) me often when I couldn’t seem to crack out anything worthwhile.
