Dibujo para colorear de León (1 de 4)

People have called the León the king of beasts for a very long time, and it is easy to see why. The big males carry that full mane, though it is the lionesses who do most of the hunting, with the cubs scrambling about underfoot. This first sheet keeps the outlines large and open, so it is a comfortable one to start on.

Acerca de: León

The León is one of the few cats that lives in a group. A pride is built around related females who hunt together and raise their young side by side, while the males, with their heavy manes, mostly guard the territory. A male's mane tends to darken as he ages, and it is read by other lions as a sign of his condition.

Across many parts of the world the León has come to mean courage and dignity. In Japan the same idea appears in the stone guardian lions outside shrines and in the lively León dance, performed at New Year and festivals to wish for good health and to drive bad luck away. That image of a brave, watchful protector is familiar to people of every generation.

A León is a satisfying subject precisely because of the mane. Filling it in strand by strand asks for a steady hand and a bit of focus, and layering warm tones to give the fur some depth is good, gentle exercise for the fingers. Many people find the repetition quietly calming, and the finished sheet is bold enough to be worth framing.
