….those of you who are acquainted with my art know how much I love texture
Rhinos and elephants have the most interesting hides. They are thick, rough and lined with intriguing patterns. I couldn’t help myself when I saw this rhino family at the zoo last week. I just had to take some shots and the back ends were particularly textural.



They look surprisingly clean given all that texture, the dimples and pimples, as well as folds and grooves. In fact they look as if wearing a heavily textured overcoat. Maybe a story or an illustration in that thought?

I’m sure they get bathed daily. It does look like they’re wearing armour.
