That snowy-owl-snow-leopard-swan gryphon piece is so lovely! I think a few water lilies would have been a nice touch but I'd also have to agree with what you said in your comment at DA about keeping it simple, too. The idea came across beautifully regardlessly!

As for a subject matter suggestion--I don't believe I've seen you draw a giraffe before. I'd love to see your hand with them! Or maybe explore some sea creatures/animals, maybe? Something a little out of your comfort zone makes for some interesting results, I think. =)

And of course, have fun at the con! =D
