beautiful work in pastel, you can almost feel the roughness of the skin!

This is one of those paintings I would love to see 'in the flesh'. You have achieved some marvellous textures and what an interesting composition.

Just 'WOW!' Catherine! A serious and respectful portrayal of an ancient animal. Really well done.

I just love elephants. I drew one in Pastel pencils and really enjoyed doing it. I must do another soon. It was a fantastic challenge . I love all the detail you have got into it. do you take your own photo's. if so where do you go to get them. I'v been to Kruger Park a couple of times and it is awesome there.

David: I take all my own photos, there is only one place to see Afrcian elephants in Australia and that's Dubbo Zoo. Unfortunately they only have one left now, they had to put one down last week. Hopefully one day I'll be able to go to Africa!
