Hidden in plain sight

Of course, as soon as i don't have to draw, that's all i want to do. For months now i've been staring at the pattern on my boyfriend's blind and wanting o use it as a mask somehow. Now that the pressures of college hav gone it struck me that it would look nice as a mask on a tiger. The idea behind being that tigers are so endangered because of poaching and deforestation that they need to be hidden and protected. Paradoxically we also need to draw attention to them to raise awareness, this is why they are hiding behindattention-seeking masks. The tigers stripes are used for camoflague, but if there's no forest to hide in then it will only attract attention.
