    Initially, looking at this drawing I wasn't too sure what I was looking at to begin with. But if you inspect each segments of this drawing it reminded be of somewhat whimsical trumpets and instruments of that realm all complied together into one forming an animal like shape. Perhaps, blow horns or machine parts coming together mimicking the being of an Elephant. With a cartoonish tone of the drawing, the dramatic expression of the eyes reminded me of something animated and dramatic. It's interesting to me how this artist in particular took something as simplistic like a drawing of an elephant and added these layers of dimensional complexity. Where I'm not 100% certain it's an Elephant but my mind is trying to convince me that it is something that maintains familiarity.
