The elephant tries to escape from Africa, they try to keep him

Idea of work
Using the inner borders of the canvas as a prop for escape sounds extremely realistic to me. This is what I do all the time. For me, this work is very close to me because it has become the logo of my site and the main element of my personal exhibitions.

In general, it is certainly sad when something extremely important has to be changed. And it is doubly sad when it is important, it is important not only for you. This is what I feel when I look at this work.

Technics
Technically speaking, I was not entirely happy with how the background came out. But initially, in my opinion, it could have turned out even worse, the beginning of this can be seen under the elephant’s foot, a cheetah’s paw is still directed at this curl, which is different from others. So it remained the first and last experiment with a different background.
