'Wolpertinger'




A wolpertinger (also called wolperdinger or woiperdinger) 
is a mythological hybrid animalthat is said to inhabit 
the alpine forests of Bavaria in Germany. 
They are often characterised as being mischievous.
It has a body comprising various animal parts —
 generally wings, antlers, tails and fangs, 
all attached to the body of a small mammal. 
The most widespread description 
portrays the Wolpertinger as having 
the head of a rabbit, the body of a squirrel, 
the antlers of a deer, and the wings 
and occasionally the legs of a pheasant.
Well, my Wolpertinger does not
look exactly like that,
but it is quite close.
My boyfriend, which is a German,
recognised it immediately! 
So I am ok with my version of it! 
My Wolpertinger is made with 
ink and watercolours on 
watercolour paper. 
What do you think???
