Two beautiful portraits. How nice to see one of a tiger not full face, but turned away engaged in something. Both are brilliantly executed - well done!

All of your work is magnificent - animal paintings can so easily slide into sentimentality and cutesyness, but yours don't at all; which isn't to say that they're cold, either! Superb work.

You have a lovely gallery. This is my favorite - it is beautifully composed and has just the right amount of emphasis on the tiger's head.

11" x 11" Pastel on "suede-effect" paper. At 22 weeks old this cub and his sister were into everything. He was actually watching his ball floating on their pool but I decided to paint a bee on a dandelion instead.
