A Lioness in Africa

"A Lioness in Africa" Oil on Canvas, 8"x 10", Original Painting FOR SALE: $75.00 + $10.95 S&H

Roooooooar!

This pretty little lady lioness seems pretty calm and is just chillaxing in the grasslands of Africa. Pretty isn't she. Looks so harmless, like you could walk up to her and give her a hug!

Or . . . not! Well at least not in this life! But you know the Bible says that "the wolf and the lamb will live together; the leopard will lie down with the baby goat. The calf and the yearling will be safe with the lion, and a little child will lead them all."

So maybe one day I'll get to hug a lion! Or an elephant!

Elephants are my favorite animals in the whole wide world!

My husbands laughs at me and thinks it's funny when I tell him that I want to hug an elephant.

He's from a country by the name of Chad which is located in Africa; So, he's seen a lot of the exotic animals that we don't normally get a chance to see in the States. As a boy he had several exotic animals, as pets, like monkeys and gorillas.  Lucky him! I want an elephant!

Anyway, I hope that you enjoy today's painting. I sure had a lot of fun painting her!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog today! Take care and God bless! 'Til later fellow art lovers!

Day 22 of 30 in 30 Painting Challenge: Animals: "Lion in Grass"

Original 8x10 Pastel Painting For Sale - "Lion in Grass" : $50.00+ $6.95 Shipping and  Handling

Hello and good morning!

I'm just posting today's painting for the 30 in 30. This painting, like yesterday's painting, was done a little over a month ago, so that I'd have a backup on a day that I would not be able to paint. Usually, however, I do my paintings only a day ahead, so that whatever I post on any given day is painted the day before. That way, I can post the day before's painting early morning the next day. So normally, the painting for today's post would have been done yesterday, however due to a busy day yesterday, I did not get the chance to paint. Instead, I had lots of  chores and cleaning to do, that's laundry: folding clothes and washing clothes, making beds, cooking dinner, cleaning the girls bedrooms, and cleaning the kitchen, and dining room--in short I just wanted to get caught up on chores. The house was a mess when I woke up yesterday morning so, the time taken off from painting was well needed. I also wanted to get some rest last night because I woke up tired yesterday morning, and had to fight to keep myself awake while doing chores. So I went to bed early, last night, without painting. However, I plan on getting some painting done while the girls are at school today, after my usual normal chores, ofcourse.

Anyway, that's all for now from SamDoum Art.

Hello everyone!

The weather in Pittsford,NY,  and the rest of the Rochester, NY area is extreme--That's extreme coldness, I mean. The weather is so bad today, that all of the Rochester City School District schools, as well as the Rush-Henrietta schools are closed. So my three little girls are home today. It's been advised by the local news that everyone should stay indoors in order to avoid the cold, if they can. Yep, it's freezing outside, but I thought that we could warm things up again and take it back to Africa, where the reference photo for this pastel painting was taken. I have titled it "Majestic Lion Couple."

I found the reference photo for this particular peice on "Paint my Photo"'s website. I hope you enjoy!

Day 2 of 30 in 30 Painting Challenge: Animals: Lady Lioness

Original 8x10 Pastel Painting For Sale- "Lady Lioness" : $50.00+6.95 Shipping and  Handling

Hello everyone!

It's Day Two of Leslie Saeta's 30 Paintings in 30 Days Painting Challenge and I have my 2nd animal painting for you today! This one is of a lioness in the grass, and I call her "Lady Lioness". I love the colors in this one, and I also like the sparkle in Lady Lioness' eyes. I had a lot of fun drawing her and the girls have been really enjoying my newfound journey painting animals, especially Miriam. They love going down to the basement, visiting me in the studio, in the morning, a lot, eager to see what animal paintings I've created while they were sleeping. They are really proud of their mommy and they think it's really cool to have a mommy who is an artist. Several months ago Miriam even asked me, "Mommy, are you famous?" Hillarious! No, I'm not famous, but I can tell that she is really proud of her mom and I love the look of love and pride in her eyes when she looks at me. Such a beautiful thing. It is a good feeling to be loved. I love my three little girls, and it's such a great feeling to be loved back. God bless them, my three beautiful princesses. My husband and I are truly blessed to have them! :)

Well, that's all for now from SamDoum Art! "Til later fellow art lovers! God bless you and enjoy!
