On A Giant's Back
Acrylic On Canvas
Ophelia,Phoebe and Mel having fun on the elephant’s back….and elephant was pleased to have their company as well! :D This was painted in May’08 and I remembered I had a yearning to want to visit Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand :D..so that was why I painted these 3 friends having an outing with the elephant….because there are many elephant reserves there in Chiang Mai, where they protect these precious animals from harm. I was glad to be able to go on that trip in June’08 this year! :D

Great animals!
Hehe, love the bunnies expression!
udonchow replied
Wow, you love Phoebe’s expression! Great! I have had many people telling me she’s looks too sad :D
fixtape
I don’t think Phoebe looks sad, but a little nervous. I’m not sure if it’s because of the elephant or the balloon. But I like that!
