The Lion and the Gorilla Oil

TITLE: The Lion and the Gorilla.

Original oil painting on stretched canvas 30 x 30 inches.

Seascape.

One of three from the 'Red Clouds Collection' which includes titles

This painting is a Sea scape, inspired from the views from the Dartmouth skies.

I started playing with orange and red oil colours, to make big fluffy clouds rolling in, folding over themselves.

Floating high above the sea, in the clouds, a moving Lions head is proudly admiring his land, but what he doesn't know is that there is a Gorilla hiding in his mane, just for the ride.
