Pastel 132 - Jellybean the Tiger

Several years ago my dearest told me about Jellybean, the white tiger, passing away.  The story of how he got his name and the sweet pictures of this large animal stuck with me, I guess.  I had drawn much of this piece, and had selected this color scheme for the cat before I realized it was my feelings about Jellybean (named for the tiny pink pads on his paws when he was small).

Read about Jellybean.

There is a larger image of this piece in my Pastels gallery.
