Elephant in the river

I'm creating a drawing a day, for two years, just for the art of it.

Today's is an elephant in a river.
It reminds me of the Just So Stories, if you have not read them, don't worry, you are not dead yet so there is still time to correct this omission. If they weren't part of your childhood, then at least you can find a kid to read them to.

Elephants hug

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it. I'm three days away from completing a year! I'm quite proud of myself as I am also a freelance textile designer and a mum of two!

Today's is elephants hugging.

Elephant, and thoughts about war.

I'm creating a drawing a day for the art of it. Today's is an elephant.

When I was about 21 I went to Berlin Zoo, and read there, that one of the first casualties of allied bombing of Germany was Berlin Zoo's elephant. To me this has since stood as an example of what happens when politicians persuade people to hate - non combatants die.
If someone is telling you that some group is the cause of your troubles, they are lying to you. You are the cause and the solution to your troubles. He who says "It's all the tall people, they look down on everyone else." or "It is the people who believe in the monkey God, they are cheeky and will take all the bananas if you let them in our club." that person is lying to you for personal gain.
