Free Mali

I couldn't do it.  I couldn't paint an elephant in captivity.  So I painted Mali, living out in the wild as she deserves.  Mali is an elephant living in the Manila Zoo, with no grass, just a concrete pen, all alone.  She's so alone she even holds her own tail.  It's a horrible story.  I have signed petitions to get her freed but so far there has been no luck.  So I painted this in honor of Mali and how I hope she will live sometime soon.
