This surrealist scene gently pokes fun at our tendency to attribute human characteristics to our pets. Here, a lioness carrying her cub strolls through a museum in front of “paintings” (digitally manipulated photographs) of lions “crowned” with necklaces I designed. 
 
Whatever the lioness is thinking, the cub clearly wishes he were somewhere else, as indicated by his less-than-thrilled expression reflected in the mirror.   Fully appreciating the cub's expression requires seeing this up close, making this framed sculpture especially suited for small spaces.
 
The tawny colors of the lions in the photographs, the lioness and her cub contrast with the olive green walls and the reddish-brown wooden floor of the room. Materials used to create this mixed media scene include dollhouse miniatures, wood, mirror, a realistic model of a lioness with her cub, and paper.
