In the picture above I'm standing as tall as I can, but I'm still so difficult to see next to the giant elephant beside me! (Clue: I'm in the bottom left of the photo). Roll on the ellies!
This romantic one is called 'Love Story' and she has large eyes like she's utterly besotted with someone. Maybe she's off to see her boyfriend? If so, I'm in her way!
Here's a fashionable one (with a very comfortable trunk for me to sit on). She's called 'Razzle Dazzle' and has pictures of well-dressed women all around her body, and retro designs above and below.
I guess this one is pretty easy to name: she's called 'Red Arrow' after the famous stunt pilots in the RAF (Britain's Royal Air Force - you can sometimes see them doing special 'fly pasts' during occasions like royal weddings). I'm not sure this elephant can fly though - perhaps she could use her ears as wings?
Here's a rather complex one called 'Spirit'. I'm standing by her right front leg. At first it looks like a kind of leopard pattern that got really smudged, but if you look closely at the pink wash of colour in the middle, it's actually a herd of horses! The lead horse and the elephant cleverly have their eyes aligned.
This is a photo I posted on my Twitter @ElfDryadalis , and it got retweeted by @IntuBromley! She's called 'The Butterfly Effect', not only referring to her pattern, but also to the idea that a tiny, insignificant change somewhere in the world (like a butterfly beating its wings) could have massive consequences elsewhere (like causing a thunderstorm in another country). It's a huge idea, and it does make some sense, but I'm quite happy just to slide on her trunk rather than figure it out.
Here's one which is very fitting for this blog: 'Unforgettable Journey'! I guess it would be unforgettable indeed if an elephant went up into the sky using a hot air balloon...... and the rain beside her (falling onto my head, thanks) is accurate for Britain!
There's even a London section as well, where you can see Big Ben and the London Eye!
I'm going to continue my own journey around London's landmarks.
See you soon,
Elf Dryadalis
