Artist's Comments

Commission; graphite on Strathmore paper, 15 hours. Per request, this is a bigger version of a smaller (deleted) submission, thus the title Bigger Leopard ^_^

EDIT: I was given a photocopy of a leopard's face by a client to create this piece. (I added the leaves and other fauna myself.) She had no idea where the original came from. That really bugged me, so after some exaustive research I have discovered the leopard face came from Guy Coheleache's book, "The Big Cats". Personal mystery solved. Thank heavens for the internet!

~falls over in amazement~ The shading is absolutely gorgeous and so is the expression that the leopard is showing. You're really lucky to be asked for commisions as much as I have been seeing =^_^= meow

Thats absolutely beatiful ^_^ all the tiny spots and the detail on the branches making it look like theres plants growing on it, much have been so annoying! You even captured showing the crease of its fur on his head.. very nice ^^ thanks for your comment, Im going to look at your gallery right now.
