Ellie's Yoga Pose

“Ellie's Yoga Pose”
The photo for this painting was taken in 2017 at Umani Springs, Kenya, a reintegration unit of the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Very young, orphaned baby elephants require milk every few hours night and day to thrive and flourish. As they mature, they learn to hold their own bottle. Eventually the young elephants join a herd or create their own with other orphans and become wild elephants.

Mini Matriarch

"The Mini Matriarch"
The photo for this painting was taken at an elephant rescue center in 2016 in Kenya. Young, orphaned elephants develop close bonds with the other orphans. Usually, certain females have a tendency to take on the role of “mother” for the less secure babies. The tenderness and support they naturally exhibit is truly emotionally moving.
