Painting - Watercolor On Arches Paper
Description
This piece was painted to be included into a floral art show at a local gallery. A jaguar was begging to be painted, but how could I incorporate flowers into this painting? The inspiration for the name came to me in the middle of the night to paint Tiger Lilies with the jaguar and call it "Jaguar & Tigers!

Very detailed work, and very well executed. I like the two 'cats'. The Jaguars staring eyes really work as the main focal point! v

Thank you, Martin Davey! It was quite a fun challenge; saw "dots" for days when I closed my eyes. :)
