This painting combines my love for landscape painting with nude figure painting. It shows a nude with a lion watching over her. It reminded me of the creation story and Eve waking for the first time in the Garden of Eden. The lion behind her creates tension because she seems to be unaware of it. She seems completely at ease as if waking from a dream. 
The nude is taken from a 2009 Playboy shoot with Candice Boucher in the Masai Mara. She was too beautiful to resist. For obvious reasons, there wasn't a lion in the original photo but I felt its inclusion was in line with what the photographer wanted to capture with the shoot but, it would have been impossible.
