Description

This series was alot of first for me. It was my first series, first time to use multi-media, first time to draw this large, and helped to set my drawing style and tone for future works. It was my final project in drawing II and it got a B.

The idea behind the series is to have the population of the big cat now... versus what it should be. So the colored in part is what the popultion is. The black and white area is the missing population. I started coloring from the eyes out because I believe the eyes are very important in any drawing/painting. As a kind of teaser... you have to look, but I added a map and the location of each animal.

Orginally I wanted to do 4 works, but my professer wanted me to do more... so I added two other big cats. The orginal idea was to do the 4 in the genus Panthera... but I ended up doing the 7 in the Family of Pantherinae. I didnt finish all 7, by the end of the time limit my wrist was so enflamed... I couldnt even hold a pencil without pain. I turned in 6, and suffered a B. A year later I added the 7th to the line up.
