Watching these lions comfortably lounging was the inspiration for this piece. "Valiant Devotion" focuses on the affection and gentleness of these magnificent creatures.
The soft pastel brands I used were Unison, Faber-Castell Polychromos pastels and Prismacolor Nupastels. For the tiny details, I used Stabilo CarbOthello pastel pencils.
