Nice how he posed for me huh? Actually, I took the reference photo by holding the camera lens up to the eyepiece of one of those 'drop a quarter in telescope' at the Wild Animal Park. He was fun to do and now he belongs to my little grand-nephew Aidan.

    Your Lion is wonderful - I love the looseness that you achieved painting him. I also love the December open publication insert at the top of your blog. How did you do that?

    Marta, great job on the lion. Good thinking of how to capture his ref. image. Aiden must be very thrill to see this.
