Italian Griffon?

My mom is hosting a get-together with some of her old classmates from high school. She wanted name tags for everybody and a couple of signs. She also asked if I could draw a cutsie thing of a griffon (their school mascot). Since they're meeting to eat at an Italian restaurant, behold--hungry hungry hippogriff.

Except it's not a hippogriff, but I couldn't resist the connection.

Other things on the backburner that I'd like to finish and show peeps.
