On Monday, my latest black and white painting made its way to the USA. I loved the expression in this Tigers face and how the photographer captured it at that exact moment. I did use a lot of artistic licence to make this piece my own as I usually do on all my wildlife pieces. Obviously working on black and white but I also hyped up the contrast a lot. Really making the most out of this monochrome technique and focusing purely on values.
