Out of Africa – Elephant design

I started the Out of Africa wallhanging theme from Jemma and Alex’s photos of their honeymoon safari in Kenya.

This was the photgraph that prompted me to include the Elephant, that noble and ancient beast of the Kenyan grasslands, as they relaxed in a muddy pool.

Getting rid of the “bums and legs” while lengthening the picture gave me this

Elephant all alone

I created a “virtual” baby elephant to share the pool with its relative

The end result which will be the basis of the Elephant wallhanging from my Out of Africa series, now looks like this

Leonardo might recognise the lines ….. and I’m sure you all do too.
