Description

Painted from Memory!! To the best of my knowledge, When I was a kid I walked over to bear creek park from my house that was just around the corner,
And there was a circus being set up.
They were setting up the big top, I walked around the corner and here was this HUGE Elephant,
the care taker was feeding her shelled peanuts, she looked right at me with the kindest eye I ever seen, The caretaker said she likes you, then I was asked if i wanted to feed her some peanuts, I was shocked cause I did not know elephant's ate peanuts, any way I said sure,
then he told me her name is sweet Beauty, I’ve never for gotten the look she gave me, it was engraved in my mind, so one day I decided to transfer the image in my mind to canvas,
This is what she looked like, I only changed the background, because I wanted to set her free back into the wild, and free her from the Circus.
And instead of eating peanuts I painted her drinking water from her favorite place she called Paradise!!
NOTE!! I’m not sure about the tusks, mainly males have the tusks, but some females do as well as I have been told.

Have a great day Everyone/ Pj
