Mix It Monthyly - Theme Circus and Try It on Tuesday - Theme Romance

Mix it Monthly's theme is Circus and I wanted to draw some elephants in my art journal for it. 2016 is the last year that Ringling Brothers will have elephants in the circus. It is kind of sad but I am really glad for the elephants who will retire to Florida. I hope they enjoy their retirement!
I never realized that elephants have so many wrinkles until I tried to draw them!
I found out while commenting on posts for Mix It Monthly that there is another challenge here on Try It Tuesday whose theme is romance and I thought that they might qualify for that too.

Great drawing of the Ellie's for circus. Sad that they'll be gone from the big event.
