SciFi and Fantasy Art: Lionsmane Falls

Ever since I did a painting a while ago--'Undine'--with a bit of waterfall in it, I've been itching to do something with a LOT of waterfall in it...and here it is. The European lion went extinct way back when, being overhunted and acquired for arenas (of the lions and the Christians, the lions by far came out the losers) but I imagine some nameless--and wet--sculptor chiselling away a tribute where falling water would form a mane. No matter how I play around with other styles, I always come back to the old beloved digital realism...and rocks and water, water and rocks. (And since the time honored refrain of 'There's more detail, but it's too small...' is wearing on me, I'm putting up a detail of the chick.)

I gotta agree with Gardner, It's the next Mona Lisa!!! If you just look at the tiger and the water, then in peripheral vision...BAM! You JUST see the mysteriouspose, and KNOW she's up to something. But she would rather die than say what. AMAZING!

Beautiful and sad. So many types of lions are now extinct, many due to the Romans hunt for entertainment. Man, I miss the European and Judean lions...
