I'm Never Gonna Forget That

My dad is a painter and has been my mentor through this journey of me learning my style and what I love to paint. He set a challenge for us to paint something of his choosing, then I get to pick what we paint next. He asked me to paint an elephant, and I begrudgingly said 'okay'. He still hasn't painted anything I've asked him to.

My story

I came across my love for painting by complete accident. Coming home from a week in the mountains, my roommate had painted our dining room table a color white that was too boring to look at every day. Just having fun, I painted a paint-by-numbers painting on the table to cover the white. Here is a picture of the table today: 
I ran out of brown paint at the end, otherwise I would have re-painted the tree trunk.
 Acrylic on table (duh)
