watercolor 21 x 14Another in my Chicago series. This is of the Art Institute of Chicago. In front of this building are these two lovely green lions. They protect the art?? At Christmas they have big wreaths around their necks. You can always see people sitting on the steps or just standing around and talking. I plan to do another of this area with the people doing just that, so keep watching.....
Fantastic. Superb colours. That lion has so much character. You nailed him. Superb.
ReplyDeleteThat is a familiar Chicago icon! You have painted very well.
ReplyDeleteLooks like he is guarding the art for sure.. Another beauty..
ReplyDeleteSujit. He is a might lion. Theu are big, too. Glad you like it.

This a fabulous painting ,love the lions pose
ReplyDeleteThanks Rishi. Glad you like it and welcome to my blog! Please come back, I change it often. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, I have to reveal you a terrible secret, my watercolors are into the museum, lions are not protecting art, are avoiding seeing my works, He, He. Well, now something seriously, the lions are very well painted and the building also. When I saw your painting I thought you have been in Madrid taking some pictures. In our parlament there are two lions in front of the stairs like in your painting, so some day I'll try painting it and I hope you can verify it.
ReplyDeleteIt's just beautiful kathy. I love it :)
