this is a horrible picture of it, but I wanted to submit it today because today is The International Cheetah Day Challenge (ICDC), which is supposed to promote cheetah awareness - people talk about lions and leopards and tigers all the time, but a lot of people don't realize how awesome cheetahs are, and how much help they need right now. please check out the cheetah conservation fund to learn how to help them and go here to learn more about the international cheetah day and amazing these beautiful animals really are (:

anyway, this was another project I did for my art class, as a cultural exploration of the significance of cheetahs in the many many years they have been on earth. they are my favorite big cat and it was really important to me to have something about them in the class.

acrylic on canvas
14 x 18 in
7-10 hours

EDIT: here's a better picture! the colors look much nicer now.

Oh whoops @__@ I didn't bother to reread it after I submitted, so I didn't see that. Thanks for the correction.

Thank you! It was hard finding good reference pictures.

Wow! Amazing work! You have exceptional talent! I love the melding colors in the sky and the way you have the cheetah in the tree... a lot of people do not realize they can get up in trees. This piece just gives me hope that the cheetah will survive the ignorance of man. They've lasted this long... Excellent, excellent work!
