King of the Savannah

Originally one of the Africa images from our 2014 trip, but there were branches over most of the lion’s body. Not a good image, but possible for some work in Photo Art.

Dropped the BG out with Re-Mask, then used Watercolor in Topaz, sketch,
and then converted to Sepia-ish. Added lots of sketch lines with Pencil Sketch and free-hand. Added some texture in the Lion’s face.
Just random ideas that seemed to work well together at the end.

Excellent, Sandy. I really like the results of this. The contrasting eye is an excellent touch.

Pretty cool, Sandy. Looks like a pastel/pen & ink with a little watercolor for the eye which seems a good fit for this.
