This girl is some sort of cross between a human and a giraffe-I'm not quite sure how she came to be, but here she is just the same. I tried to give her extra long limbs but they turned out pretty normal. I still like her, though. The words on the side are a botched attempt at quoting Edna St. Vincent Millay. The girl in the picture is named after Edna.

^_^ You've got some awesome ideas. You did a fantastic job on the markings, and I lov eyour handwriting here, too! One thing that kind of bothers me is that her face seems a little bit flat...but goodness, this is amazing!

:-) Stephanie M. Riley replies: "I'm really happy that somebody else commented on dear Edna, here. She really is one of my favorite ladies, although she doesn't really have a lot of shading or anything. Still, I liked her since I first put her down on paper, and the more comments the better."

This is a great pic, it kinda reminds me of the old 40's pinup art of that period. I like the markings and the proportions (although not you intention) turned out great.

:-) Stephanie M. Riley replies: "It does sort of have that look! Thanks for the comment!"

I love those giraffe spots, they look coolest!
Love Rian

:-) Stephanie M. Riley replies: "Thanks! I was looking at a picture of a giraffe when I drew it...it really helped make them more realistic."

i really like this picture and was wondering if you were thinking about coloring it. If you do let me know, i always liked it and would like to see more.

:-) Stephanie M. Riley replies: "Dear Jimmy the,I'm not sure about coloring her...I might mess her up too much! Can anybody help me learn?"
