#Elegrams Help Save Elephants
The Nature Conservancy (nature-africa.tumblr.com/post/… is trying to get "elegrams" to help save elephants!
Donors have pledged $20,000 to The Nature Conservancy for programs associated with anti-poaching efforts and elephant sanctuaries in Africa if we all pitch in and create 20,000 "elegrams" in the coming weeks. To participate, create a piece of elephant art (it can be anything from 3-D art to food sculptures - but no photographs of real elephants) and upload it to the Nature Conservancy's website listed above, or to Facebook/Twitter with the hashtags "#elegram" and "#SaveElephants"
Let's help save some elephants, fellow Deviants!

Raven Digital Linework
One of my first all-digital pieces of artwork done completely on a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet back in 2008. Prior to this, I would draw my line work in pen and ink, scan it, and use the tablet to touch up the work. This was also used as part of the flyer art advertising a show I did with called "Art Remains", which featured leftover pieces from previous shows.
