For this particular painting, I put equal emphasis on both color and shape in order to achieve what I feel to be a certain authenticity an appropiate approach for the elephants I choose to work with.
Some few shades of color into a composition can strengthen the emphasis on form which is something I find important while minimizing the risk of distraction
I tried to strive for a harmony of color in this painting
This painting has as reference a dark photograph exposing certain details from which I took some advantage to work with nevertheless I have to check another photographs to suggest, as I wanted to
The background with several dark shapes is made in order to balance the elephants shape, spoiling the ilusión of distance given more importance to color than details ref.- PO631
Ref PO631 "La Mamá elefante"
No influence is so powerful as that of the mother
