Title: Notable Necks

My brother in-law has this great band in Nashville called the Justin Kalk Orchestra and their mascot is a giraffe rocking horse. It sits on stage with them and has a hilarious presence to say the least. This piece was inspired by the giraffe and it’s famous neck. I paired it up some other notable necks from the wild and from the world of music.

Here’s Justin performing one of my favorites, Frown, Frown, Frown – look for the giraffe front and center

Ralph Steadman did the cover art for JKO’s debut album, featuring the “Stiff Necked Rocker” giraffe
