An extraordinary little person in my life asked me to draw her a giraffe, so … here is the inked version. Of course, she said she wanted a pink giraffe with purple spots… so now I need to bust out the watercolors and execute. If it wasn’t for her… I would call this done! But for her… pink and purple it is (with a sky background and a couple of fluffy clouds in the background, maybe as I find cloudless skies quite boring in most artwork as simple as this)

Initial sketch in pencil, refined and inked with a fountain pen in carbon black ink. If I had Yama Budo ink (pink ink from Pilot), I would do it all in ink using a water brush and my pens)
