Illustrated for the happy arrival of a family member's baby to be placed on bespoke name artwork (name and details changed in the image further down the page) and later made available to purchase as a customisable gift. The giraffe calf illustration is based on Dobby, who was born prematurely in Denver Zoo in 2017.
I wanted it to seem like the little cutie had brought the new baby a flower! The Gerbera Daisy was also hand drawn with fineliners and the orange shape was added in Adobe Illustrator.
Fave fact about giraffe calves: On average, they are around 6ft tall at birth!
