Panther Kids T-Shirt

Re-visiting a series I had done some work with in the past, these animal faces are specifically designed for prints and to look especially great on apparel. I wanted to try and emphasise colour in this piece since the panther itself is black so I focused on just painting the highlights and leaving the majority in darkness. I painted the highlights in purples and blues to give the colour some vibrancy and strong saturation, and they worked really well against the black. I initially considered just painting the highlights grey, but quickly realized that the piece would look much better with a stronger colour scheme.
