Emma's Lion

I do love Lions, but i've always had a hard time drawing them - they are deceptively difficult in terms of proportions (mostly the face). So i had (as usual) a difficult time selecting photos to use as reference. But i found one eventually that i didn't initially think to look for, so that was grand. Then i decided to put all of my drawings on the back of my bedroom wall! My favourite animal drawings are usually kept in my large A1 folio which is obviously where they are safest - however, they also unfortunately share this folio with a group of temperamental charcoal drawings that like to imprint themselves onto other works (despite being attacked several times with fixatives). They've ruined a lot of my spare drawing paper so far, so i think i will need to store the charcoal ones elsewhere... Anyway, please enjoy:

Emma
