A friend of mine requested a lion card so I spent much of the morning working on sketches. I’ve not had much experience drawing lions so I was carefully, or rather timidly, drawing with a mechanical pencil and so concerned about getting the right details in. After a number of sketches where my lions looked more like somber golden retrievers, I got fed up just grabbed a sepia Pitt brush pen and just started scribbling. This little tantrum actually produced a wonky, but still lordly looking lion.
