Cheetah Cub

Cheetah cubs are known for their adorable, playful, and innocent nature. Picture a small cheetah cub with its fluffy, slightly long fur and distinctive dark tear marks running from its eyes down to the sides of its nose. Its large, curious eyes are wide open as it playfully pounces on a blade of grass or a small object. The cub's coat is a soft, tawny color with black spots scattered all over, and a mane of longer hair runs along its back, giving it a slightly fuzzy appearance. It embodies youthful energy and curiosity, pausing occasionally to look around with an expression of pure innocence.

Here I have created a painting of the cheetah cub using a scoring technique to achieve a photographic effect. I believe it captures the playful innocence of this tiny cub beautifully!
