Copy of Laughing Lions Print

This traditional art can be found in ceiling of the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic in Kandy, Sri Lanka (Ceylon). The original art of this has been identified as 18 Century creation which called Sinha Roopa (Lion art). This was illustrated in a way that two lions looking at each other. But both of them has one face. A laughing face can be seen in the art with lots of fur and long teeth. This preserved art was re-drawn by me in 2020 on a Canvas Pad (Nightingale Canvas Artist Pad) with Acrylic paint. I have tried to recreate the original art as much as possible with fine details preserving the original art from. The Colors Yellow and Red prominently used in Sri Lankan Traditional art.
