She’s graceful, pretty and stealthy. Stalking her prey, silently creeping up on them. She’s singled one impala out from the herd. A juicy meal.
In the real world, beauty often shields ill intent. Pretty faces get away with a lot. Leopards are beautiful creatures. Graceful in their movements but lethal to their prey.
I painted this while I was in England in 2024. This piece is painted in watercolour and ink on paper. It’s mounted and framed in a handmade frame.
