Enjoyment

Hi Everyone

I did this watercolor of this very contented tiger, I just couldn't resist.  This is the latest challenge in our own Painting Friends Friday Foto.  The beautiful photograph was taken by our friend Stephie.  This tiger is just basking in the sun and enjoying it ever so much. I wonder when Stephie took this if she could hear him purrrrrrrr.  I hope everyone feels this contentment when you view and please leave a comment.  I so like reading them.

  1. Nora, this is truly beautiful. The first thing I thought when I saw it was that this kitty was content! But now I have a question for you. Do tigers and lions purr? (A serious question; I haven't a clue but am now wondering about this.) Great job!

  2. Nora, he's fab! Definitely a contented cat. And AutumnLeaves - apparently tigers (and other big cats) don't purr like pussy cats do, tho they can make a kind of purring/growly coughing noise but only when they exhale (unlike kitties, who purr continuously, when they feel like it anyway!)

  5. Nora, this big kitty is super...and he does seem to be purring:-) I love how you used the blue to make his color stand out. Well done.
