Kirana

Kirana

I love tigers, who doesn't?  Gary asked me to paint this from his amazing photo of Kirana taken at Chester Zoo.  I love the composition of this, the way it is cropped in, all Gary's work, I just copied it! The stripes drove me a bit doolally though!

  2. Full frame Tiger.

    To say this is pretty impressive is a bit of an understatement Sharon, photograph and painting. But its the painting we're looking at here, and well....some painting.

  3. Looks amazing! Tell him to give you a zebra photo to paint and try those stripes, you'll really go buggy!

    1. Hi Judy - no fancy technique - just white gouache!
