Well I’m at the stage with this painting where I am just tweaking now – a glaze here and there, spending more time standing back and looking at it, than actually painting. Hope you have enjoyed the journey – seeing how I develop a commission piece.
All continue to twek then upload a new photo under good lighting so you get a better feel for him – love to hear anyones thoughts on him


This is spectacular! I love the shading and modelling of the chest area, the whole thing looks really great.
May I ask, is this painted on paper? Canvas? How will you mount it to a surface?
Thanks for posting Carol,
He’s oil on canvas – when finished he will be stretched on stretcher bars and framed.
Jason, he is absolutely stunning!
Thanks very much Akiko
I saw this when you posted it on Wet Canvas. I was so in awe of it, I bought your PDF demo. I paint myself, and do horse and dog portraits mostly.. but your techniques of getting the eyes and fur really amazed me.
I have started using the techniques, and already I have seen a huge improvement. Thank you for sharing your secrets, Jason. I am now a huge fan and will be telling everyone I know about your work. You have a friend in Virginia!
Looking forward to more of your work.. I love the tiger paintings as well.
HI to my new friend in Virginia!!!
Glad you like my learn to paint instructions – hope to speak to you again soon!
You’ve done a great job here.
