digital.

A depiction of the mythological steed from Islam, renowned for carrying the prophet
Muhammad around the Holy Land and on up to Heaven, way back in the day.

Abraham apparently also had a ride.

It's supposedly a kind of winged, flying donkey with a human head - how cool is that?(!)
I just now made the above picture, but it's not new imagery for me.

In this case, I won't spam my account and your submissions with old uploads, but will
just point to them here.

I first learned about the Buraq back in 2003 and made this:

1. Buraq, 2003. Ink, then digital.
2. Detail

Later, in 2005, when taking my intro digital class, I felt the class was too basic and challenged
myself to try more digital painting on my own. This was one of my first real efforts:

3. WIP 01
4. Detail
5. WIP 02
6. Buraq (Unfinished), 2005. digital.

I didn't get very far though; my ambition often outstrips my abilities with new
mediums/techniques. I particularly like the "baked potato" he ends up standing on :B

Of course now the Illustration department offers an advanced digital painting class, specifically :P
For those who can't tell, this is more practice on the technique I want to use for BREMEN.
