One guy from Norway has made a bet that he will collect one million giraffes in two years. Let's help him to reach this!
There are only 512 days left. We have to hurry! smile.gif

If you want to know if your dog or your wife loves you the most! Lock them both in a small dark room for a few hours, and see who is the most pleased to see you when you let them out!

Norma,
I love your animal portraits. You really have the knack of getting them right. Great job on the giraffe. They are odd animals, did you know they have the same number of cervical (neck) vertebrae as a human?

I made everybody at breakfast this morning, including the waitress, draw a giraffe.
Then when I got home my teenage sons and their friends added giraffes.
Twenty one in total.

This is from the safari trade.

I think I will try a full picture too.
I will go add them.

Wow! Great idea to get everyone to draw one. I love the one you did for the safari trade, you are so talented.

audrius, i was just cruising thru the giraffes, and i adored the one as musical notes, so i clicked on it and was tickled to see that is your giraffe art..
just thought you'd like to know that one really stands out of the crowd enough to make me actually go and click on it

I actually found three with your distinctive signature.
I think you should post them all here for everyone to see!

Beautiful work Kay!

Thank you, girls! It's really nice to hear that mine aren't just grey particles in a grey mass.

Kay, yours look splendid! Thank you for participating very much smile.gif

I posted all my giraffes on my blog. You can see them here

I was just wondering if people on other art sites know about 1 million giraffes. Some of you guys are on wetcanvas and stuff like that. It would be really nice if you spread that forward. Thanks in advance smile.gif

And, of course, I'm waiting all you bloggers to help me out with the Giraffe Sunday!

I blogged about mine also.

All of your giraffes stood out even the ones I didn't recognize as yours, great work!
