Tiger in the Jungle

A vibrant painting depicting a dense jungle scene with lush greenery and a variety of tropical plants. The foliage is thick with large palm leaves and intricate patterns of light and shadow. A tiger is subtly integrated into the lower right corner, blending into the environment with its striped fur.
