This is a painting of Lucy the elephant inspired by my dearest friend and love Catherine.The paintings include a night scene painted on a sand based panel on location at night.I used a series of pastel glazes and mediums that result in a luminous portrayal of the large Lucy in Margate NJ..I was also encouraged to do a day version of her.The illustration was painted on location in two 6 hour sittings.It is a watercolor with pastel and watermixable oils.
