Why do so many people live their lives as if they are hibernating? As I wander around my local shopping centre I wonder at all the people there with dead eyes, going through the motions. If they look up they may see wonderful things all around them. Look again at the world with child-like wonder, maybe you won't see a roller-skating elephant in a pink tutu, but you may see something that will make you smile, make you think, make you live again...The image that this illo is based on is the classic Australian painting Collins St, 5pm by John Brack http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collins_St.,_5_pm

OK, so this is bizarre... and cool! I like how you dropped the elephant into dullness and backed it up with bright vibrant colors against the neutrals of the scene. Well done sir!
Great back story behind your illustration. I love the elephant!
I see it! I see the elephant!! There's hope for me!
