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 7 of 30 in 30 Painting Challenge: Animals: "Majestic Lion Couple"

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

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!

'Til later fellow art lovers!
