Chimera

As part of the Chimera brief  I was asked to research a Chimera, to get an idea of what is generally thought to be a chimera then move away from that idea altogether. So I began by google-ing 'Chimera'.The mythological meaning of a Chimera is a 'monstrous fire-breathing female creature composed of the parts of multiple animals'  here are some images I got.
