James Parker is the artist in our group who always uses humor in his work so when he asked that everyone paint animals I knew that I would be painting giraffes...there is something in their look that makes me smile and occasionally laugh. James, I hope this makes you smile too!
They are wonderful, Dana!! I LOVE them. They have the sweetest faces. They make me smile. James will flip.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, Dana! Giraffes come off as gentle clowns. The Texas boy will love this! :)
ReplyDeleteThey make me smile too especially those beautiful eyes and long eyelashes. James will love it.
ReplyDeleteI'm crazy about both of these. Those big all-seeing eyes, the beautiful pattern of the spots, echoed in background which is almost as fun to explore as the animals themselves. What is extra nice is that this looks like one that would be really fun to paint in addition to the outcome giving one a big smile! Winners!!
ReplyDeleteI love the giraffes, Dana - I'm sure James will too.
ReplyDeleteJust amazing! Love the giraffe and the way you treated the background!
ReplyDeleteGreat subject, Dana. And so well rendered, too!
ReplyDeleteI think giraffes are some of the most graceful animals, these are not only filled with that grace, but also a touch of whimsy. Beautifully painted, this is one that I will get to see in person and am looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteDana these are so warm and lovable. Great job.
ReplyDeleteWow. Dana. Yes, indeed, I do love em. You did a marvelous job sticking your neck out to paint these delightful creatures. Thanks, Dana.
