Artist note about this work; 
I've painted and scibbled away at countless works  of animals. Some of these, just like any viewer, I connect with more over others. From time to time, I wonder if they could express themselves through fashion, as we do, what would they wear? 
This series of works I expored that question, and while they could not choose for themselves, I happily explored it on their behalf. 
Relephant was too gorgeous to pass on. I immediately saw her with a sunburst crown and a cluster of assorted mix and match earrings, created with gold and silver leaf.
