This weekend’s challenge was to draw or paint a tiger, and our students really rose to the occasion. From pen and ink wash work to bold colour studies, each artwork had its own character. Some captured the strength and movement of these big cats in full poses, while others focused on the heads with expression and detail. It’s great to see so many different approaches to the same subject and the results were ‘roaringly’ good.
Thank you to everyone who joined in this week. We loved seeing all of your tiger pieces, and a brand new challenge will be posted tomorrow.

Catherine TThis tiger was done with acrylic and white pen on paper, from one of the tiger pictures supplied. MaryAnn HI had made this Tony Tiger mask a while ago, and I added some fashionable glasses, since Tony’s getting a bit on in years and maybe he doesn’t see as well as he used to. AliciaThis is a tiger painted in acrylic on clear plastic, I’m going to set it against a green background for a birthday card!
