I tried to post this last night, but things didn't go my way so here I am attempting again.  This is a companion piece to the Baby Ed drawing a few weeks ago.  I'm not sure this is a mother, but it is definitely an adult elephant.  Less brown "fur" than Baby Ed and more wrinkles!  Was very fun to do.  I am hoping to spend time in the studio today, painting.  I have an "urge" to do more oils - and I have to work while the mood is there!  Hope to have more to post soon....
