Original artwork description:

This is a whimsical portrait of an elephant, which took form in my head even before I put a mark on the paper. Painted from my imagination, this beautiful elephant emerges from a liquid blue and turquoise background, with swirls and blooms defining his form rather than drawing.
A treat for elephant lovers!

Materials used:
