Brave and True -Paint Party Friday


This is a T-Shirt I painted for Alan, long ago.  I love this lion.  There's something so sweet, brave and true about his eyes.  Alan adored the T-Shirts I made for him.  It makes my heart happy to think of him wearing them and bragging about his "one-of-a-kind" shirts.  I can still see him in my mind's eye, smiling with delight.

 Happy Paint Party Friday, all you wonderful artists and beautiful people. God bless you, dear ones.  Have a lovely weekend and thank you for dropping by.

    there is a beautiful and gentle quality about this lion and I can see why your Alan would adore this and all the love you put into it as well. Keep those wonderful memories alive and you too will be strong like your lion. Be well.

    This is gorgeous, his eyes are stunning and he has a very noble, gentle look about him. No wonder the tee shirt was such a hit-how lovely to have something so unique.

    He really does look like a gentle giant, and I can imagine how Alan would love to wear this. How beautiful to have these memories, knowing you made him things that he adored and loved. Hope you are doing well ♥

    Your lion is grand! He does have kind eyes. I did a lion in pastels, which I have hanging over my bed. I named it The Lion of Judah. He also has kind eyes.
