tiger big cat realist portrait art painting skateboard deck

This amazing tiger image looks very impressive on this board, the soft pastel medium really emphasizes the tigers stripes and fur detail. The original tiger painting is part of my wildlife collection of paintings. When I painted this original tiger picture I tried to express the pathos and sadness that I saw in this big cats eyes. I titled the painting "I Have Feelings Too" because these wonderful creatures are so persecuted in the wild for their fur, their body parts and many other totally "mindless" reasons. perhaps the perpetrators of such callous cruelty don't possess compassion in their hearts and they can't perceive that animals feel pain, fear and anguish. This vibrant colours of this beautiful lion really stands out on this great customizable skateboard deck. I'm sure this original piece of wildlife art will make a very welcome gift for someone special who loves wildlife pictures.
