William and his half-brother Pete and their father (transformed into a Lion... LOOONG story).
Green and pretty... Once summer comes I am so going to the botanical garden and draw the plants there.
Anyway... Lions are hard to draw...
I want some crits on how to better my anatomy on animals and plants. ^^ (Already working on humans) Thanks guys.

You did an amazing job on this! Your coloring skill is amazing (I'm jealous x3) Those lilacs look beautiful.
I wish I could help with the plants, but I have no idea about them. x3
Oh man, yes, Lions are really tough to get down right. They have weird anatomy, in a way. The head and mane and shoulders you've drawn spot on - especially the head and ear relation. The only thing I'd say is that with the paws, to make the lines separating the toes a little shorter. Lions have kind of flat paws, and the way their fur goes, their toes just don't look very separated until near the end. It's really hard to find an example of what I mean - most pics of lion paws have them from the bottom showing the paw pads. Anyways - when at rest the toes aren't that defined, but when the lion clutches something in its paw, the fur separates and it's easier to see the line between the toes.
... I hope that makes sense. I mean, I'm no expert, but just trying to help. xD Hope it does! Either way, awesome job on this. :3

I agree with Zawisza, especially about the paws.

There's one, but it's not too good.
I would say, though, that the muzzle appears to be a teenie bit too long.

The coloring on this is lovely, and I love white fur on a lion. <3 It reminds me of these fellows:
