I think this is a stunner. I really like and admire the way you've painted this. The colours and brushstrokes are great - would hang it on my wall any time.

One for my husband by special request. Enjoyed doing this on a large 20 x 20ins Loxley canvas board in oils. Went for a more abstract feel as I didn't want a perfect elephant image. Colours used, Lemon Yellow, Yellow Ochre, Magenta, Ultramarine, Paynes Grey and Titanium White.
