The original photo did not have the lion on a ledge, or have a cave behind him.. but I am not trying to reproduce the photo, I am trying to produce a painting. So I add some inventions of my own, to give the painting more of an atmosphere.

Lion II
In this stage of the lion painting, I have painted the ledge upon which he was sleeping a sandy colour and also put in some shadows behind him - and a few on the rocks, some for shadow and one for a cave I intend to put in.

ReplyDeleteI really like the vertical elements that you have put in. This is looking very, very good.
ReplyDeleteThank you both. xx
ReplyDeleteI hope you will like the finished painting, which has some much stronger shadows in it :)
It's fun following your process, not just your painting process, but your thinking as well. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are enjoying the process Judy - and if you can follow how I think, write and tell hubby, eh? :lol:
