Eagle Half face?

I have a request from a family member who is going to be giving a presentation... a story about an eagle. She said it will be somewhat native american in theme and would like something like where half of her face would be painted as an eagle (with her eye as the eagle's eye) and the other half would be her own face (like she's half eagle and half person). I have seen a couple of faces where the whole thing is painted as a forward facing eagle face, but am not that nuts about that particular view. What I am trying to kind of think of might be a bit of a stylized/tribal eagle face in maybe a semi forward facing view. I realize this might mean the beak has to go over the halfway point on the nose a bit? Anyway, if anyone understands what I mean and has any ideas, I would be greatful to hear them. Thanks!

Lone wolf has an eagle on her website. i copied it. Mine is in my gallery. (click on the brush under the avatar)

Thanks! I'll see if this is at least the kind of thing she wants.

I did a Phoenix which looks eaglish...sort of, but faces out not in

thank you!

Shannon,
That is brilliant, you are so talented.

Thanks... that is one of the very rare uses of burgundy I've had. Think that was back in 2004 or early 2005. It is my brother Neil who died in Feb 2006 so I know it pre-dates that (since he didn't let me paint him for a couple months before he collapsed.)

That actually was for a challenge - the colours were pre-determined and had to use squares - the colour shading is stamped squares (I cut up bits of sponge) and the crosshatching is squared too.

Mine is very much inspired by Catherine Pannulla, her work is so great!

Here is my version:

It might be neat to do something very stylized toward Native American artwork. Here are some nifty eagle designs I found (<3 google)

I like those flying birds at the bottom! Super cute!

Maybe you like that...

These are all great- I am still working on exactly what to do with it but these give me lots of ideas. Thank you everyone!

I found some eagles!!!!!!!!!!!!. I knew they were here. My daughter homecoming is near and I need to get inspired. These eagles are great. If you have more please post.
