This study of a Royal Bengal tiger was just for fun. I love the interplay of colors throughout. Don't have time to do more ambitious pieces right now, just small works that don't take a lot of time to complete. Temporary circumstances force me to curtail work on larger, more labor-intensive pieces and focus instead on simple studies and paintings that evoke a particular mood. Update 12.25.2023: I tweaked this painting a bit in places where I cut into the face with a few green shards to integrate the tiger with the water more and also hopefully emphasize the eye on the left a bit more.
