Very much an experimental vulture! So many different things being tested on this poor dude. ...am either riddled with allergies at the moment, or I might actually be having issues with charcoal and pastels.... watch this space :(

Meet the Griffon Vulture (Gyps fulvus)! This bird has a wide range which spans parts of Europe, Asia, the Mediterranean, and northern Africa. It flies high in the skies, searching for the carcasses of medium- to large-sized animals to devour. To distinguish this vulture from others, look at its silhouette while it’s in flight. From below, it’ll appear to have a little or no tail—some even say it looks like a “huge flying mustache.”🥸 Photo: Jean-Paul Mutz, CC BY-NC-SA 2.0, flickr #AnimalFacts #birds #vulture #GriffonVulture #DYK https://www.instagram.com/p/CbTgat3L9XI/?utm_medium=tumblr

Yesterday I was very excited when I finally unwrapped this beauty; because this October issue of The Tishman Review is really something. -> A proper literary marvel, I could say🌟... and also, it is my first magazine cover in print, which we were planning for almost a half of the year. -> and you can now find it on Amazon or Kindle☕️👉🏻! (a little about the picture: Do you remember my "Griffon vulture" drawing from the Pyrenees, based on the real experience with this gorgeous creature, which was in pain and dying in front of us? Such a precious, PRECIOUS work to me🖤)
