I´ve been struggling a bit to find inspiration of what to draw since moving to Athens. So in order to have a break from aerial hoop images I tried something new – big cats.
I have been thinking about it for a while. Inspired by Josh and his blog dedicated to The Jaguar and its allies. Go and check it out! It has very good and informative articles on jaguars, other big cats and wildlife conservation.
Josh,thanks for your encouragement, and I mentioned a while ago that I will try to do something with big cats, so this is attempt number one.

Great picture, Mel! I love the way the jaguar is staring at the viewer with the classic, “I’m highly displeased with you” expression that cats tend to give. Also, thanks for the kind words about my blog!
