    This is amazing, Annamora! Wow – so much life looking out of its eyes and beautifully depicted!

  • annamora replied

    thank you :) ... yes I had a very good reference photograph from one old magazine … and then I was also drawing it in a way that I need to swap sides because of the background pattern …. I think that’s why it turned out pretty ‘fresh’ looking …

    Hi Anna,
    Great angle of the giraffe. I love how he is looking right at the viewer. Those splashes behind the animal a nice contrast to the subject. You are a very talented illustrator. Do you illustrate children’s books? You should, you know.
    Curious to know what mediums you used in the background. They are intriguing to me! Whimsical creature, this giraffe is. I think my little painted creatures look up to this fellow, in more ways than one.

  • annamora replied

    Bev …. i am just typing in my replies and I will have a look at your works soon .. thank you for such a nice comment :) ... the background is of water-colours and acrylics in washes and printed textures
