Female Tiger (Aysha) painting on site study isle of wight zoo



From a pencil study I made on the 25th February 2008 (top picture), she was peeking around the temple like structure in the Ranthambore National park enclosure.
I have been going down to Tiger Island most afternoons, I now have around thirteen sketches I can turn into paintings.
Drawing the pictures is averaging out at around an hour, the painting of these sketches takes considerably longer and some of my most recent sketches have got very complicated compositions.
Aysha took around four days to complete, 50 x 50 cm, acrylic on box canvas . Finished 3rd March 2008
