African Lion

Description

Original painting of an African Lion by UK based wildlife artist Paul Hopkinson

The majority of wild Lions live in Africa, however there is also a small population in western India. Male Lions weigh around 190 kg, that’s almost 30 stone, and this weight enables them to look after the pride, and also hunt for large prey items. Their mane grows and darkens with age, and can get to 16 cm long. It is thought to act as protection for the head and neck during fights.

A bit about me:
I am a full time professional artist based in North Devon in the United Kingdom. Specialising in wildlife – animals, birds, insects and botanical studies, I love to capture the life within my paintings. I very much enjoy the process of working with the watercolour medium to create fine detail. My portfolio is ever expanding and many of my paintings are available as tutorials – both written and video. Take a look on my channels, and you may see this painting being created, maybe even have a go yourself!
Thank you for browsing my work, and I look forward to hearing from you.
