Picasso: Giraffe

Original hand-painted in gouache on acid-free watercolor paper.

Part of the Artist & Animal series, this playful giraffe head is in an approximation of Pablo Picasso’s style.  Picasso worked in many different styles during his long career, most memorable are his colorful fractured and misaligned portraits.  This giraffe is created out intense colors in simplified shapes that don’t line-up to make a full face.
