Really beautiful colors. Very nice detail in the fur. The lion's expression is that of calm confidence. He is the king and he knows it!:) Lovely texture and contrast.

I can't even comprehend how this is done on the computer lol. You captured the majestic part of a lion but still the softness of his face makes you think he is a kitten that you can snuggle with. The colors in the background are like a hot summer night... simply beautiful.

Exceptional my friend. I love the texture here the most, the lion seems so smooth and liquid, this creates such a sense of gentleness. Excellent composition, choice of subject matter and use of available space. The contrasting colours in the background you've chosen, really add to the painting. Cyn

Thanks again Sam

I like lions also (I am a Leo..LOL), and I think this is amazing! He is so regal and handsome! And he looks so amazing against that beautiful background! I also find it amazing that such gorgeous images can be made digitally.

I can't thank you enough for such a fantastic compliment. The words " such talent" is something as little as last year Thought I'd never hear.
Thank you Susie

Comment from Skyangel02
You do a really great job with the twisted brush. Do you use a wacom tablet and ipad or just the mouse and computer?
Your proportions are perfect and the details are excellent.
Great work.

Believe it or not, I have a wacom tablet but it seems too awkward to me so I use a mouse. I have had more people ask me how I do this kind of work with a mouse. I have to say that it's tail gets in the way but as long as I have enough cheese setting near me he does what I want him to do LOLL
Needless to say just a bit of humor, okay very little humor there LOL
Thank you skyangel for such a very great review and high rating
