A to Z Challenge
"Lion King" - acrylic painting ©Mary Montague Sikes |
Today's painting is 14" x 11" acrylic on stretched canvas. For me, "Lion King" is the most intimidating of the creatures so far.
I am late posting it because yesterday I went to Petersburg to install a small art show in the Oak Antique Mall. For those interested in history, the store is located in the Old Town area where the Lincoln movie was filmed last summer. It's three blocks from the Petersburg Regional Art Center where I have two gallery spaces to display some of my artwork.
Monday's post in the A to Z Challenge will be the halfway point. Congratulations to everyone involved! Thanks to those who came up with the idea and followed through on it.

That's cool about the film location.
I like this one! The small color range works well for the lion.
Thanks, Alex. A photographer with a studio at PRAC next to mine took tons of photos of the Lincoln film shoot. He got in past guards in late afternoon for some great shots.
You really get it right with the eyes of this animals. Another super piece of art.

Can't believe we're almost at the halfway point already. Time flies when we're having fun.
Now I'm going to scroll back through the rest of your posts to see what I've missed this month.
