Tin Foil Moons and Portfolios

This is part of my portfolio for a school I'm auditionning for. I thought this photo looked pretty
cool out of all of them. This piece is of an Imaginative Creature, the background is of a night sky;
which consists of a tin foil moon, a charcoal pencil tree, and the sky is done in blue watercolour. It was supposed to be mixed-media, as you can see. The rest of the painting/piece is multicoloured flowers surrounding the bottom of the tree, a small rocky pond-ish-pool-of-water; which is done with watercolours. The creature... is the head of an eagle, done in acrylics, except with a gray beak and gray plumage, a bat's wing-- done in charcoal pencils, a parrot wing, the hind legs of a lion, a dragon's tail in oil pastels, and front legs-- are eagle feet.
It's not that good a painting, anyway. But it's pretty good in my opinion.
