| The blotches of color left of the Lion are simply drops of paint that soaked through the previous page. |
Lions are very majestic and kingly creatures. I think that we think that about lions just because of what they symbolize in stories but never the less, it was really cool to sketch this one.
I was carful to fuss with the proportions as much as I could to make sure that the construction lines were as accurate as possible. In these kinds of sketches mistakes are harder to correct because of all the sharp individual lines that you can smudge with an eraser.
Also before this sketch I never noticed that all lions have bright yellow, almost white marks under their eyes. I never noticed that before and it was quite a surprise.
