Tigre en el agua by Olga Díaz

Comments

Great composition ✔️

It's a fabulous pastel. I painted a tiger too and I know exactly what you mean about the confusion of stripes!

Wonderful! I love that face, and the way you have managed the water and those stripes! Not surprised you dreamed about this.

Super work

This is really beautiful Olga.

Very well done, the wary look in the eyes is just right.

Gorgeous painting Olga.

Wow! what a great job you've done!

Thank you so much everyone. 🙏✨️😉

A fabulous pastel, Olga. The technical execution of the tiger’s markings is impressive, especially considering the inherent complexity and 'confusion' of the stripe patterns. You have successfully maintained the anatomical structure while integrating the subject into the fluid environment of the water.

I loved painting this tiger in the water; the stripes on its body confused me a bit, and I even dreamt about them. But it was a lot of fun. (Pastel and pastel pencils on Pastemat paper)
