Artist's Comments

This is a part of a larger image that I might never finish ... I'm not sure if I should add blood or injuries - the noble character of the lion might be harmed ...
I used photo reference for this painting. Hard to find a lion and an antelope that would model for me, even if I offer the lion a big T-Bone Steak ... the antelopes always run away screaming =)

Omg, that's so great
I think it looks very life-like.
And I don't think you should add blood and so...

I fell in love with food. Is that such a sin?

I luv the texture you created for their fur. Great work of art.
I agree with you about the blood. It would take away some of the effect of the title too.
