Final Alebrijes

Artist Statment:

I decided to create this type of alebrijes because I love elephants, beavers, and parrots. His name is Wooly, he missed his bus because he was sitting on the sidewalk admiring the flowers and clouds. This compares to myself in a lot of ways because I get easily distracted and I embrace the little things in life that most people take advantage of. I also get left behind mainly, but i always find a way to come back ten times better than i get left.
