Bold Lioness

This is a wood burning that I did of a beautiful lioness. The dimensions for this piece are 6x8, and it is on live edge poplar wood. I specifically love wood burning eyes, and this one had such lovely eyes that I wanted to make them stand out as much as possible. I used a torch to burn the background completely black to add a lot more contrast and pull attention to her.

This is the link to when I posted this on my Facebook page (asking for people’s opinions on the black vs unburned background):

My wood burnings use reference photos from the incredible photographer and wildlife artist Sonia Reid! Her website can be found at “soniareid.com”.
