Hello, wonderful creative!

I absolutely loved creating this lion spirit animal piece. It was so much fun to jump into the painting with both acrylics and then oils. I truly encourage you to give it a go! I have never painted a lion before so this was a wonderful new experience for me.

Remember, if you are wanting to focus on painting but you are not yet able to draw very accurately, try using the transfer method I demonstrate.

Don’t let yourself think that you are somehow cheating. That’s that pesky inner critic talking! Just ENJOY creating your spirit animal piece!
