Here is a colorful elephant surrounded by jungle flowers of red and autumn red leaves blowing in the wind. I decided to color this elephant as an animal of royalty for the colors of blue, pink, red, gray, purple, etc. I colored the trunk of the elephant the traditional gray for a touch of realism. Since this is a jungle picture I made the elephant where it seems he is walking down a well worn path.

Dolphins
'Dolphins' the drawing is from an adult coloring book that I colored using colors from light blue, yellows, greens, gray, etc. I tried to lightly smudge some of the colors together trying to give a sense of being underwater. To be honest I think this is actually a picture that was of a huge aquarium for the small pyramid at the bottom. In coloring the blues for the sense of water I made the waves and bubbles darker than the rest of the water. I am also hoping that I colored the bottom for the dirt the right shade of brown. I am hoping for comments and sharing of ideas.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Understanding the P. Diddy Controversy and the 50 Cent Factor
For over three decades, the name Sean "Diddy" Combs was synonymous with the pinnacle of American success. From the glitz of the "White Parties" in the Hamptons to the chart-topping dominance of Bad Boy Records, Diddy wasn't just a mogul; he was a gatekeeper of culture. However, by 2025, the music industry’s most polished facade finally cracked. What followed was a legal and social collapse so comprehensive that it transformed a global icon into a cautionary tale of power, ego, and accountability.
