(OC) Getting back into digital painting with a soft elephant!

(I can provide a timelapse/sketch to mods as proof)

Haven't digitally painted in a few years and I'm so happy with how it turned out. I don't think elephants can naturally lay in this pose (I didn't find any references) so it was fun trying to figure that out too :)

Elephant internship

I posted awhile ago about my elephant internship interview and was worried I messed up by saying I want to work with marine mammals. I actually just got offered the internship!!! I’m so excited and thank u to anyone who commented on my previous post with kind thought+words. If anyone has any advice or knowledge about interning with elephants please let me know!😊

Why do I cry every time I see videos of elephants?

I thought maybe this subreddit would understand my emotional experience! I've always loved elephants for no particular reason, and every time I see a video of them I get a rush of emotion and tear up. I'm 43 female and this has been happening for a while but it became more intense about 5 years ago. I know I sound insane, and I am a very rational person! Just wondering if anyone else here has the same experience!

I got to pet and feed elephants today

I think I might still be on cloud nine. Today we visited Wilstem Ranch in Paoli, IN and experienced the Safari encounter to celebrate my honeymoon. When the amazing experience and what beautiful gentle, kind, silly goofy creatures. I was truly honored and humbled to be graced by their presence.
