Stippled Giraffe.


Had a very busy and cold day today, working at an Art Exhibition in Auburn, South Australia. I'm looking forward to hitting the electic blanket in an hour or so -- the thought of a warm comfortable bed sounds pretty good at the moment.
I finished this Giraffe drawing yesterday, and I must admit I enjoyed every second of it -- somewhere around 25 hours from beginning to end. The entire drawing is done in stipple (pointillism), which is one of my favourite penwork techniques, on Premier Watercolour Paper 216 gsm, and measures 10"x8".
