Elefantenfreundin means friend of the elephants. This website with my sketches and stories (to come) is very close to my heart. Since years I am fascinated by elephants. As an artist I use my pen and my camera to make contact with them. I follow their rumbles and go where the elephants live: I want to see them, hear and feel them, and I follow them on their ways and capture these moments in my sketches. I am curious about their lifes, I want to know, how it looks like here and now, in their natural surroundings and in men’s hands, overseas as well as here abouts, in zoos and conservancy and breeding programs.
Step by step I will publish new sketches, stories or short texts on my Elefantenfreundin international blog. As there are many interesting websites that offer knowlwedge and data about elephants, you will find only my own stuff here. People eager for knowledge may check out the information provided under Links.
I invite you to share my travels and projects around the elephants and I am looking forward to you supporting the elephants by buying a sketch.
