No sooner had I finished it than I started this fast and loose painting of a tiger.
I had learned from our Painting Like the Masters challenge on Painting Friends how to paint a Monet style oil in watercolour - and I so loved it I do not want to lose the skill. So I employed that technique again on this tiger.
I find repetition is the best way for me to retain a skill - how about you?
Anyway, here's the tiger painitng, I do hope you enjoy this too.

I really like your style of brushwork and colour application on this one Pat. Very exciting to the eye I think. You've captured the hungry tiger look very well - he looks ravenous ... time to go!!!
Thanks, Michael - its a technique I love, hence another painting using it :)
He does look like he's just caught the scent of you on the breeze... see you in the safety of Treetops :)
I hope you could throw him a piece of meat from the treetops so I can safely comment. :))
I love the style of the tiger painting Pat! Amazing how many colours you used!
Meat thrown, but you might need to run, Judy :)
I really love using this style - it is colourful and eye catching :) xx
Hi,Pat,
Hello, Tiger! Beautiful work. My honest impression; your work gets better and better.
Cheers,Sadami
I really love this style as well Pat, love the layers to your landscape, and the colors are perfect. I think he looks more wise than hungry though. The patriarch of the family.
This tiger is simply beautiful Pat.
I agree with you, repet some work is, in my opinion, one of the best way to improve our skill with watercolor. I did it (and I still do it) a lot of time with any type of subject. Ciao!
Very colorful painting. I also once tried the lady with an unbrella of Monet. I don't remember if I posted it in my blog. Anyway, it was fun to do, so many colors involved. You must have had enjoyed painting the tiger with those colors.
He's so regal. I love him! I do think repetition is a good way to improve skills.
LOVE it, Pat! The foreground grasses are absolutely beautifully done!
I like a lot this style of painting! It's so bright...good we, Arianna!
Wonderful painting, Pat...love the colors and brushwork in the grasses. Of course, the big guy is wonderful...
Oooh. Very cool, Pat!
Wonderful painting, love all the coloring in the foreground, and the king himself looks so proud and regal!
Have a nice weekend.
Es impresionante,da hasta un poquito de miedo.
Me parece super interesante como utilizas esta técnica.
Besitos desde Madrid.
Very nice, I like this tiger; compliments. Have a good weekend.
It's wonderful. Repetition works for me in not only retaining but perfecting a skill
Ah, he's very cool! Nice image!
Very nice this "Shere Khan" and very good technique!
Muy buen resultado Pat, esa técnica es muy prometedora.
Saludos

Pat I love him! He looks so majestic and proud. Like he's waiting for his minions to come and serve him. :))
I really admire the challenges you set yourself Pat! You seem to fear nothing! I wish we lived closer - I would just LOVE to have an arty day with you, just painting away, inspiring each other! :0)
This is a gorgeous painting of the tiger, love the shading.
Oh this one turned out a real treat! It's gorgeous! xx
Hello Pat. I stumbled here from Ann Hyde's blog and I'm so glad I did. This painting of the tiger is ferociously fantastic! I'm off to have a look at more of your work.
Tchao-wow from Portugal.
