Here's the finished painting.It's for the Small Works Show in Frenchtown NJ this weekend. It's based on a previous sketch of a lion that I saw while on safari in Botswana. It brings back very fond memories because it was the first lion I encountered in the wild.
In this painting I've skipped the very beginning stages but you can see how the background and foreground are blocked in. The lion is almost there. I'm working mostly on the front legs but also small details all over the cat. I've lightly drawn in some grasses with a white charcoal pencil as well.
