O’Meara’s graceful translation of a historic painting is on par with the delicate brush strokes of the original. He captures the spirit of the well honored Eastern beast, while bringing to life a monochromatic oil painting. Thus, breathing new life into a still. While worlds apart in media, the energy is captured, unlike the wild roaming leopard, running free in the woods.
