Big Cat Art

The Big Cat is a magnificent animal, their strength and agility just leaves me in wonder, I am sure when you have seen these cats on television it is a mesmerizing thing to see such a powerful and skilled beast.

Cousin to our smaller counterparts, the house hold cat... they also hold a bond with us.  Not in the way our small felines do. These cats are a power house!

Art has shown their agility and strength. Fighting and hunting has burst onto canvas and sculpture.

If you have never done any such art, as with the big cat. This is going to be your chance. They not only make a good subject, this animal teaches us allot about ourselves. The power of our own wild spirit and how we want to portray them. It is an exercise in art that I want you to take on.

The big cat is going to bring out  the wild in you. Just don't jump into the canvas yourself, because you may become  entranced with their will upon our own thoughts.

I am going to take you through many different styles of the big cat on canvas and in sculpture.

 Working with art on canvas, you are in a sense; working in one dimension. Yet, when working in sculpture, you are working with a thousand dimensions.

Whatever medium you work with, or even both. Your are going to love to work with this animal.

"It is the artist who is truthful and it is photography which lies, for in reality time does not stop, and if the artist succeeds in producing the impression of a movement which takes several moments for accomplishment, his work is certainly much less conventional than the scientific image, where time is abruptly suspended".-Auguste Rodin
