This caught my eye today because I just completed a commission job of a large white tiger. I too love painting large cats, but have only done a few. I love how you have captured the intense gaze in the eyes. Very powerful, and yet like many large cats they are soft and it makes you want to reach out and pet them. Love the textures in this pastel. Very bright and yet earthy. The background is great accenting the eyes even more. Wonderful composition! Thank you for sharing!

Very nicely done Suzanne. Breathtaking in color, composition and ability.

The eyes mesmerize. Colors are true to life and rake on the furs softness due to your technique.

Wonderful piece.

Those eyes are almost hypnotic! So full of life and such amazing refraction. Artists like you who create such lifelike pieces always blow me away. I spend time looking at the way you have used pressure on the paper to create depth and movement..I am on my knees in awe! Donkeyoatey

Excellent pas telling Suzanne with great detail in the tigers coat and markings. I know how hard that is to achieve with the soft pastels and you have certainly mastered that technique!
This is a super image of a very handsome tiger,!

Comment from Beatrix&Boris
Whether the upload does it justice or not this image is still quite remarkable. Great illumination in the piercing emerald eyes. Great textures in the fur and I love the slight smirk. I am so in awe of your ability to composite images in your brain and just have a go at it. What a wonderful artistic talent.
