Description When the last eagle flies
Over the last crumbling mountain,
And the last lion roars
At the last dusty fountain,

In the shadow of the forest,
Though she may be old and worn,
They will stare unbelieving
At the last unicorn

When the first breath of winter
Through the flowers is icing,
And you look to the North
And a pale moon is rising,

And it seems like all is dying
And would leave the world to mourn,
In the distance, hear the laughter
Of the last unicorn

I’m alive,
I’m alive

When the last moon is cast
Over the last Star of Morning,
And the future has passed
Without even a last desperate warning,

Then look into the sky
Where through the clouds, a path is formed
Look and see her, how she sparkles
It’s the last unicorn

I’m alive,
I’m alive

I’m alive,
I’m alive
I’m alive,
I’m alive…

"The Last Unicorn" ~ as sung by In-Mood Feat. Juliette

No offense to America, but I prefer the version of the song performed by In-Mood. It just sounds more beautiful, and has more magic and mystery to it.

Thank you! That's one of my all-time favorite movies and all-time favorite books, so of course I had to do an illustration! And, believe it or not, "The Last Unicorn" is what inspired me to create Terence in the beginning.

That was the trickiest part of all for me to do, but I'm glad you love it! And yeah, the overall picture does have a nice calming effect to it, now that I step back and look at it. Thank you very much!

The lighting gave me grief, but otherwise it was tons of fun to make!

Her mane and tail were also considerably tricky, but I had fun making those!
