A lion in side profile stands on a puddle of black ink, its dark mane swept back and its tail ending in a heavy tuft. The body is filled with black blotches and spots that carry the dark modules, while the square finder patterns sit behind the animal as bold black frames. Pure black on white keeps strong contrast, and the grey legs and shaded face add depth without crowding the pattern. Fine whiskers and a faint speckle cloud near the head add a hand inked touch.
