Happy holidays everyone!
I've been meaning to draw this one for a while 'cuz of this documentary I saw about elephants in the Andaman and Nicobar (or was it Daman and Dui?) islands of the coast of South India. People there actually go from island to island on the backs of elephants! It was amazing seeing how graceful and light those great pachderms seemed in the water! And the water was so crystal clear it seemed just as if they were flying!
So I've drawn the elephants flying home to their island and happily gambolling in the sea. (Junior seems to have dropped Grandpa, but that's alright its all water below... ;)

Wonderful illo so happy you had packing paper!!!
TJ your elephants are so cute and packing paper works just fine in a pinch! Enjoy your much needed break during the holidays!
Hey, I've used cardboard. There's no harm in packing paper. 'Specially if it turns out as cute as this. :)
(P.S. Thank you for your wonderfully kind comments, and have yourself a superb holiday!)

Hi
Elephants flying back to their place? It's wonderful and amusing.
I’ve experience of staying at Port Blair for almost three years between 1995-1998 and I've seen quite a few of them in places like Havelock islands.
By the by, I’ve written a Short story book, wholly devoted to Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Mr RUSKIN BOND has written foreword for it.
Please visit my site http://remixoforchid.blogspot.com to know more about my effort and comment on it.
Thanks.
Sincerely
Nanda
