every day in may & I-F: Parade

a parade of elephants!

Really enjoyed doing this much looser watercolour style. I think I may explore this some more.

in edim news, the editing of my children's story continues.
day 12: 725 words, day 13: 715 words, day 14: so far, 722 words. 
Don't seem to be able to break that 700 mark! 
I'm not sure that I need to, it doesn't feel too wordy to me, but then again I've been looking at it a lot lately. It has to be submitted this weekend for workshopping so I might just tighten up a few bits and see what other people say! But in short, it's going well. :)

Very nice - a herd or parade of elephants is also called a "crash". Wouldn't that be fun to illustrate!
