Put a Pachyderm On It

I have been known to put lots of birds in my artwork. They are bright, tiny, colourful, and appealing. Well, maybe not my grackles. Some people don't like grackles. I just think of them as crow's bratty younger siblings.

On the other end of the wildlife spectrum, I also like to put elephants in my art. They have their own kind of appeal, whether in their grand size and textured skin, or just their clannish and emotional nature. As an animal lover I have a particular fondness for them. In some cultures they bring luck or good fortune, and they often work for a living. I don't like to see them in circuses. They look their best in the jungle or roaming the plains of Africa.
