WIP #1 Lion.

Lion.  28 x 42cm  on  Waterford & Bockingford drawing paper 300gsm
I have roughed in the start of this piece.  so much work to do on the long hair and the face. I think the eye is completed.  A lot more challenging..LOL  I love a challenge.  Another quite large work. I am loving these giant lovable wild animals.  This is mainly a head and shoulders and comes courtessy of the WetCanvas reference library.

So soft and beautiful as always Dors. It sounds like you are going on a lovely trip, although I missed the blog that says where - wherever you are off to, I hope you have the best time - you deserve it!!! :)

Oh, my! The male lions are so majestic and are my favorites of the big cats. This one gives me chill bumps even at this stage!
