The falcon is the basis for all my art. Along her swift wings, my pencil begins, creating the lines on the paper that will become a completed piece. She is my prime inspiration, and shows herself in three ways:

The Falcon of Nobility. She is the embodiment of grace, strength, honor. In all my work, she whispers the words of magnificence and excellence, telling me never to settle for second best.

The Falcon of Rage. Her poweful wings and flashing eyes symbolize fury, aggression, passion. When trying to portray the ferocity of a figure, face, or event, she is there.

The Falcon of Mystery. Glowing blue and radiating light, she seems to slip right through my fingers, and into my piece, spreading her watercolor-wings throughout the paper. She is the magic in my work.

All three fly, perpetually intertwined in my mind, in my heart and hand, in a moonlit sky of perpetual twilight. If ever I feel at a loss for inspiration, I merely look up to their rushing wings.
