    also only guessing but 'speedbird' can be used to describe a stylised depiction of a bird in flight, originally specific, but now like 'hoover' and 'biro' used generally [see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedbird]

    the shoulderand back together with the head angle have that feel up to a point; agree with paul about the strong pose
