Width: 8.75"   Length: 9.75"

Materials/Techniques: I rotated the photo of the Indian elephant and put it over a background of bright Indian colors. I placed a paintbrush and nail polish on the digitally framed photo. I printed the photo on treated, cotton fabric. I then thread painted using variegated and metallic thread.

Artist Statement: I love this little elephant and its curiosity in the world. My granddaughter loves nail polish and when I saw the elephant's foot I decided to put nail polish on her toes. I normally don't do whimsical but it seemed to fit for this elephant.
