"Thank you just doesn't seem like enough

 for all that you have done for me

 and my family over the last year. 

You are a beautiful soul Amanda,

 a truly, kind, and giving person!

 Your talent heals people! 

Thank you for being a part of my life!"

~All of my love~ Kristin and Family

Loyalty

With their complex emotions and instinctual ability to form a strong family unit with impenetrable loyalty and devotion to one another, elephants stay true to their loved ones even years after they pass. This is something that I admire the elephant for.

Done in oil, this painting is on hand stretched 36x36 canvas. I forced myself to be free with the image, and tried not to get caught up in the detail. I did this by doing the layout upside down. This is the first painting in my Lucid Dream series.
