Shirley by Hazel Blomkamp

Native to two continents, the African elephant can be identified by its larger ears which, in this project, have been highlighted with Jacobean elements and 3-dimensional bead-work flowers. Finished off with a circle of daisy chain, a traditional Zulu bead-work technique, this project measures 315 x 255 mm (12.5 x 10 inches).
