“Lion and Cub” was shot in the Fall of 1977 while I was a senior at Penn State. I was walking on campus and saw a gentleman with a baby lion on a leash. I approached him and asked if he would go to the Nittany Lion Statue with me for just a few minutes. I promised him photos that he would never forget. Once at the lion, he sat the cub on the head of the Nittany Lion Statue. The cub looked at me and I shot this one frame. It must have heard the shutter of my camera as it wanted nothing to do with being calm after that. He ran all over the statue and I got a few other shots, but none quite like this one.
Established in 1887, the Nittany Lions have achieved numerous on-field successes, including two consensus national championships in 1982 and 1986, four Big Ten Conference Championships in 1994, 2005, 2008, and 2016, 13 undefeated seasons in 1887, 1894, 1909, 1911, 1912, 1920, 1921, 1947, 1968, 1969, 1973, 1986 and 1994, and 53 appearances in college bowl games, with an all-time post-season bowl record of 31–20–2.

Original one-of-a-kind multi-dimensional collage, hand-cut and assembled with mixed media.
There could not be a more appropriate artistic technique than the multilevel, hand cut, mixed media print employed by Steve Szynal (pronounced shin-nél) to capture the glamour and excitement of the many facets of life depicted in his art.
Szynal uses as many as seven layers, not just two or three as other artists use, to create a superior effect in this exciting art form. Each work is meticulously hand-cut and assembled by the artist himself with a supreme dedication to detail.
Steve Szynal graduated from Penn State University in 1987 with a five year professional degree in Architecture. He has become a licensed architect, and owns a successful lighting design firm; both which he draws upon in his art and design. His exceptional talent and technique have given new meaning to 3-D art, as visually exciting, fun, and collectable.
