Chobe Elephant drawing progress

Another day in the studio and the first elephant is complete.Ive worked up the shadows on the second elephant which throws the first animal forward nicely.once the second animal is complete there should be a strong sense of forward motion enhanced by the negative space and possibly some strategically placed vegetation.It is a very small scale piece,which poses a challenge in itself,although one that I'm enjoying immensely.The piece is only 4.5" high and its final width is likely to be in the region of 18"
