The Facebook group Purely watercolour sets regular painting challenges in the form of photographs to paint from. This is a monochrome picture, not sure if it is real or photoshopped but it wasn’t very easy to paint, I am reasonably pleased with the result.

This is beautifully captured! Is there small child nestled by the Lion?

Hi Charlotte. Yes there is a small child which is why I think it may have been photoshopped, otherwise she would be a tasty snack!
