Oil painting of a leopard and her cub. Photographic reference by kind permission of famous wildlife photographers Michel and Christine Denis-Huot.

This is my favourite painting depicting what is rumoured to be Halftail and Zawadi (Shadow) of Big Cat Diary fame but I cannot confirm whether this is true.

Sadly, both Halftail and Shadow were killed and it still breaks my heart to think that these beautiful and precious animals are no longer with us.

The painting is 20 × 30 inches and took me more than three months to complete.
