Giraffe is your symbol for expanding your psychic awareness

and getting your ready to take on all tasks.

I feel like that could be me today, but so much to do outside and the

wind is crazy strong.

Giraffe is also noted to be gentle of spirit 

but strong on kick!  I would imagine in the wild

a giraffe has not much else to defend itself with.  

This one went together very quickly and I purposely

left some spaces unworked to let the

underpaint show through.

A Painting of Zebras in Oil by Pattie Wall

"Yipes! Stripes!"

12" x 12"

oil on wrapped canvas

This is done from a photo off of Paint My Photo website.

It appealed to me because of the little one's mane,

reminds me of a mohawk.

Still have to paint around the deep canvas edge, 

a continuation of the scene.

Spent more than a day on this one and it feels right.
