It's an elephant, also with birds in its body (but the birds are hard to see... escondidos).
Beautiful!

This reminds me of the Elmer Patchwork Elephant story, when the other elephants paint themselves to celebrate Elmer Day whey he was embarrassed about being patchwork :-( -hurray for painted elephants. lovely work.x

superrrrrrr beautiful!!! :D
It's gorgeous! The elephant's got such soulful eyes.
wow! really great!
ooo! That's Beautiful! I love it!!!
I've been doing some scherenschnitte cuttings and am thinking of doing an elephant. Today I find a dish I like at the 2nd hand store and discover that it has an elephant logo on the bottom of the dish; then I take a library book out with children's illustration (birds really) and 4 pages in discover a large 2-page full spread elephant illustration. Then later, I go to the one and only art blog (yours) that I have time for and what do I see...a gorgeous elephant! Oh it is an elephant kind of day for me! Thanks for topping it off perfectly. Love your blog, Norma
Lovely, and I like how the bird sneaked in, all by itself! :)
Awesome.
LOVE it.
Precioso. Simplemente precioso!
A beauty! :)
This is gorgeous!
Stunning!
All I can say is Wow, very, very cool!
Beautiful.
Hello from Poland !
I'm a great fan of your talent - but this elephant is so amazing that i've loose my voice .... It reminds me a hindu legend about the earth founded on elephants back .
This is incredibly beautiful and insanely inspiring Geninne, wow. I'll be watching out for the print.
Awesome! This would look fantastic as a card, maybe as one of a set of different animals with others painted within them. Thinking off the top of my head, how about an elephant that 'contains' other endangered species? I'm sure that wildlife charities would jump at the chance to sell such an image.
This is beautiful...Thanks for sharing the amazing paintings that you do... they are so inspiring!
Your elephant is delightful. It made me smile to see all the goodies hidden in his body!
Oh I love this elephant! I love all elephants but yours is so perfectly colored. That sneaky bird and the wonderful flowers are gorgeous! You have an amazing sense of colors and you blend them so well....
ooo, i just LOVE him!!!
I adore elephants and that is just beautiful!!!
All things nice...
If you'd sell those in your shop I'd buy it IMMEDIATELY. I love elephants and I love your birds as well so I can't imagine a better combination. Please?
this is a good one. I love it.
magnificent! Amazing!
I love it !!
wow! this is stunning!
i really like your work
greetings
I said the bird with the poppies was my favorite, but this changed my mind! The elephant is amazing and gorgeous! So much color and texture!
¡Hola Geninne!:
¡Qué elefante más hermoso e imaginativo! Parece salido directamente de uno de esos cuentos mágicos de la India. ¡Es una preciosidad!

I showed your blog to my students and they were mesmerized. They made up stories about your paintings and looking at everything inspired so many questions and ideas! I am so glad to have found a clean, kid-friendly art blog. WE LOVE IT!

Hola ,soy de Argentina y me interesa saber como es el fotoshop y como es el colage .Gracias .Stella Magliano.
Hola Geninne, mis hijas y yo somos fans tuyas a través de facebook y del blog.
No sabés qué sorpresa enorme nos llevamos hoy al ver este elefante - que nos encanta - impreso en una línea de remeras de una marca "top" de ropa femenina en Argentina (por supuesto tuve que comprar una).
Besos
Te quedó increible tu elefante. !
