Using the basic same technique, a simple correct anatomy feature sketch is made from a reference photograph, in this painting I photographed a Lioness residing at Longleat Safari Park. The background started with a simple greenwash, but as more and more detail was added to the Lioness the painting seemed a bit bland. This female was staring and looking for her mate, so I decided to increase the intensity of the background to show a more focused feeling.
African Lioness Facts:
Female lions are the pride's primary hunters and leaders. They often work together to prey upon antelopes, zebras, wildebeest, and other large animals of the open grasslands. Many of these animals are faster than lions, so teamwork pays off. Female lions also raise their cubs communally.
