Picture
Art of the Pride is an art project featuring the art of Suzanne Unrein. Unrein is working on pieces based on the work of animal behaviorist Kevin Richardson. The artist went South Africa to paint the day to day work of Richardson with lions. Unrein's studio is now covered in works of lions and hyenas--both with Richardson and on their own.

The aim of the project is to raise awareness of the plight of wild lions--and funds to help saving them. You may have seen the viral videos of Richardson with lions floating around the internet.

These preliminary works are sketches on primed paper---following this Unrein moves into using paint and different color combinations. Following this she decides which works will be used as the basis for larger works. You can see and read more HERE.
