There was an AskReddit thread about things that had saved peoples lives. Somebody said that one of my pictures had stopped them from committing suicide. That was pretty heavy, and huge. One person, one stranger can actually make a difference. That was a really special moment.

No they're smart, I promise!

Although I did visit the zoo earlier this year and watched a herd of giraffes lick a dry tree for twenty minutes. Hmmm.

Hahaha very good point. They were probably thinking, I wonder how long we can make this dumb human stand here looking at us.

Giraffes eat like 35kgs of leaves a day. A DAY. Where do they find all these leaves?!? I love it.

Me as a giraffe

Hi!

  1. I only started drawing when I started the account! I took art in high school until about grade 10, when I gave up because I was so terrible. Looking back at earlier giraffes, I don't know how so many people liked them haha! But am very grateful they did.

  2. I'm graduating with a Bachelor of Social Science, majoring in Development, with an extra diploma in Global Issues. My plan for the next year is to focus on Motivating Giraffe and illustration, and if it doesn't work out by the end of the year I'll definitely try to get a job related to my degree.

  3. I even signed it for you!!! Haha sorry my pens are upstairs ;)
