A spirit lion in front of a moon over a wavy sea. Or is it a ghost lion over a desert? Or a marble statue which suddenly came to life? I am not sure.

Actually this started out with a concept for a ceremonial headwear I drew the other day. One of them was shaped as a lion with the head streatching toawrds the forehead and the paws covering the cheeks of the wearer. I liked the look of the lion, opened up the sketch in photoshop and did a lineart of it, and then started colouring it. This is the result. ;D
It is NOT supposed to be realistic. It's supposed to be very stylized and painterly. So I don't care about that the face looks odd or if the lightning doesn't make sense etc. : P It was very fun and relaxing to do. ^^

Almost makes me dizzy looking at it. I love the blurred and ethereal effects blended together with the muted colors. Very nice. It gets a fave from me.

Wow, this is absolutely gorgeous. There are so many artistic elements here that you have combined to work wonderfully! I like, first and foremost, the folk-art feel about the design of the lion. Somehow, it reminds me of Eastern European royal sculpture, I'm not sure why, though. The colors here are awesome, I love the orange and yellow highlights on the dark blue -- you've really captured the color scheme of moonlight. The lines fade beautifully from the design-like face to the organic lines of the mane, and I love how you've mimicked those organic curves in the waves or dunes. Beautiful job, no critiques from me!

I passionately hate the idea of being with it, I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

I think....I think this may be my new favorite from you, wursudear. It is...intensely beautiful and eerily haunting. If I had it, I would pay a small fortune to have it made into a stained glass window.

"The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the
fence. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it
is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the
grass wherever you may be."
