This little baby cougar looks a little bit nervous about scrambling into the big wide world. His cute kitten expression was irresistible to me, I just had to paint him, I used a soft pastel medium because I love the way I can capture every little cougar hair of his amazing coat. He's a very special wild cat. The original poem printed over the baby cougar painting is titled "Cries Of Sorrow" and is one of my original published poems. The poem is about the mindless animal cruelty that goes on in the world today, I wrote it many years ago when I was a supporter of the Worldwide fund for animals, I heard of so much cruely and it inspired me to write a poem for an animal anthology, the anthology was a multi poet anthology. This original poem card with its cougar cub picture will find a soft spot in the hearts of everyone who likes cute baby animals, especially baby wildlife animals and who has an interest in conservation and rescue. This poetry art card will make a great send for those special people in your life, but if you're looking for a little treat for yourself the painting and the poem are also on posters in my "Art Canvas and Posters" > "Poems On Art" section. The first few verses of the poem on this art card are on the front of the card, and the last few verses continue on the inside of the card. You can change the words of the short greeting to personalise it to suite the person you're sending it to. This cute little cougar kitten was painted from a photo provided with kind permission from Big cat rescue and he's part of my wildlife collection.
