Felis silvestris in the zoo

In november 2010 I visited the zoo Parco NaturaViva near Bussolengo (VR) Italy, I don't like zoo, but they are an attractive chance to sketch and take some photos about animals very difficult to observe in nature (for me). This is Felis silvestris, wonderful animal, I hope this sketch will became soon a painting!!

  1. Mari, this is very beautiful. Enlarging it to its full size was like an education in sketching...

  3. You concentrated all the life in the eyes, so beautifully that they bring out the whole cat, even when its only an outline. Bello!
