Igor Stravinsky - Firebird

[BlackBlueWoof]

Igor Stravinsky was a Russian composer. Depicted here is a character of a firebird, zhar-ptitsa, which is a Russian folklore creature. Stravinsky wrote a ballet under the same name which follows a hero that is tasked with stealing a golden apple from the gardens protected by the firebird.

I have spent over 17 hours on this piece and restarted the bird from scratch about five times.

Part of my calendar of composers project.

Very cool. If you watch edgarej’s video of his painting that magic motor cycle you won’t feel alone. All the Paintings are fantastic.
