Artist's Comments

This was pretty much a technique experiment involving a lot of drybrush-kinda work with a large filbert brush. The results obviously aren't as detailed as most of my stuff, but I do kinda like the textures that emerge out of it...and since I went over to fluid acrylics almost exclusively awhile ago, it let me actually use some of the tubes of paint that have been staring accusingly at me from the corner of the studio for a couple of months now.

Where the little lion in the turtleneck came from is anybody's guess....

6 x 24, acrylic on gessoboard, original is for sale, prints available for $10 and $20 plus shipping, send a note or visit [link] for details.

I think the little lion comes from the East Village.

..Looks kinda like an author photograph, like on the dust jacket flap of a hardcover.

Mr. Lion's a bestselling novelist, I bet.

That lion is adorable.

As for the techniques you spent so long musing over, I have no comment, as I don't know a tremendous amount about artistic methods. I do find the image overall awesome.
