Elephants

My elephant sculptures are imbued with emotion of love and gentleness but there is a hint of sadness as they are often subject of butchery and cruelty. The elephant sculpture often have birds and monkeys on their back, taking ride, symbolising gentle and caring nature of elephants. I raise funds for Wildlife SOS and Chester Zoo, as I has become concerned about the dwindling numbers of their population due to our greed and cruelty.

Each one is hand crafted hence each one has different character. I have used terracotta and porcelain clay, decorated with underglazes and mixed media.

This is a playful sculpture where a bird sits upon an elephants' back and has collected something shiny!
