Description Done with fine point sharpie, ballpoint pen, and colored pencil

This is one of my favorite drawings that I've done for a long time. my inspiration for this actually came from the night sky. I got out of my car and looked to the sky. The first thing that I saw was the small body of a bird in the west. Stretched out behind and above him was a magnificent wingspan that took the entire sky. My drawing unfortunately cannot do it justice, but it took my breath away. I went in and drew it immediately.

I decided to play more with the concept of hot and cold colors as I did in my other bird drawing From the Ashes, Circling High and used techniques from Candy is Awesome and combined them to make this.

I know he's not a falcon like the original Horus, the Sky/Sun god is, but I thought it would be somewhat appropriate.

I know. I ran inside to get a camera so I could try and take a picture, but by the time I got back out, it was gone. Heavenly inspiration is fleeting.
