What Brought About this Painting?

I had an idea to do a series of paintings on animal skins - just the pattern of the fur. Here is the first one, a leopard skin. I have plans for zebra, tiger, giraffe, hmmm. Well we will see how far it goes.

We wear animal print -everything- on our clothes, shoes, handbags, hats, backpacks, lunch boxes - you name it. Whether someone likes one in particular or a series of them, to be seen..

Let me know what you think!

From Wikipedia:

"The leopard's fur is generally soft and thick, notably softer on the belly than on the back. Its skin color varies between individuals from pale yellowish to dark golden with dark spots grouped in rosettes. Its belly is whitish and its ringed tail is shorter than its body. Its pupils are round. Leopards living in arid regions are pale cream, yellowish to ochraceous and rufous in color; those living in forests and mountains are much darker and deep golden. Spots fade toward the white underbelly and the insides and lower parts of the legs. Rosettes are circular in East African leopard populations, and tend to be squarish in Southern African and larger in Asian leopard populations. The fur tends to be grayish in colder climates, and dark golden in rain forest habitats. The pattern of the rosettes is unique in each individual."

Leaping quick on leopard's back / I face the brunt of his attack / In the land of nod I'm king / Until the alarm clock rings Burleigh Drummond
