"Scouting the Savannah" - Lions White Marlin Open This is a small studyThis close up of two female African lions on the prowl in the grasslands of the savannah is the first in a series of major works of big cats of the world. I wanted to the viewer to feel the power and the dominance of this species. They plan very sophisticated group attacks on their prey, led by the females of the pride. This painting captures that moment when one female gazes across the grasslands at the herd. A 24 x 36 original oil on masonite board
