Marcus Jahmal — Lion Study
Marcus Jahmal

Lion Study

2018

"Lion Study" by Marcus Jahmal combines oilstick and acrylic media on canvas to create a dynamic exploration of the animal's form and presence. The mixed media approach allows for varied textures and gestural marks, with oilstick providing rich, expressive line work while acrylic offers bold color and layering possibilities. This technique demonstrates a contemporary approach to figurative study, blending painterly abstraction with observational drawing.
