On Saturday, before drawing at the Hunterian, I plan to go elephant hunting. I spotted one already when I was out with [livejournal.com profile] omg_its_fiore, but surprisingly I haven't seen any others! Anyway, to get into the spirit of things, here's a drawing of one of the most famous elephants, the God Ganesha. While researching him I found this:
Ganesha is widely revered as the Remover of Obstacles[10] and more generally as Lord of Beginnings and Lord of Obstacles (Vighnesha, Vighneshvara),[11] patron of arts and sciences. Seems appropriate right now!
