About the Artwork:
“While a griffin is traditionally depicted as a lion with the head, wings, and talons of an eagle, this version began by combining animals found in my own neighborhood. Taking this idea to its conclusion was a fun thought experiment, creating visual connections between owls and cats through their posture, markings, and captivating eyes.” – Brian Britigan
