"Pegasus Gorgon-Poseidon"
In Greek mythology, Pegasus is the son of Medusa (one of the three Gorgon sisters) and Poseidon. Here's a picture in which he favors his snake-haired mother, but also has some suggestion of his sea-god father the design of his wings.

Thanks! :)
According to Wikipedia, "In Greek mythology, Pegasus (Greek: Πήγασος, Pégasos, 'strong') was a winged horse sired by Poseidon, in his role as horse-god, and foaled by the Gorgon Medusa."
"Poseidon was known in various guises, denoted by epithets. In the town of Aegae in Euboea, he was known as Poseidon Aegaeus and had a magnificent temple upon a hill. Poseidon also had a close association with horses, known under the epithet Poseidon Hippios."
Of course, I never knew this until I researched this picture :).
