On site life painting of Lemur at Tiger Island Isle of Wight Zoo

On A4 canvas board in acrylic. Why Oh Why did I choose for my first out doorsie painting at the zoo the lemurs.
They move very swiftly and never stand still, the buckets where some of their food is kept is however stationery.
The lemur in the painting is made up of several members of the group who took it in turns to look in the bucket although it could well be the same lemur having several looks. I got confused!
The painting took just over an hour on a bright and sunny afternoon.
