I found an interesting online collaboration called One Million Giraffes. The owner is trying to collect one million giraffes created by people all over the world. You simply scan or photograph your giraffe and upload it to the site.
We had some giraffes already at Flickr which I added to his collection.
And we used this excuse to make more.

Here is my giraffe featured at One Million Giraffes. And Sprite’s two most recent additions are here and here.
So if you need a sketch topic or a craft theme, consider giraffes and help out the One Million Giraffes project. Here is an easy giraffe template and here’s another craft idea.

Sprites drawing just keeps getting better and better. I’ll have to show these to my baby because she loves giraffes…and ducks. LOL

We’ll have to do giraffes in some of my classes. That should send the number up a little quicker! This kind of gave me an idea as well. We are doing a horse themed art show in October to benefit a local equine therapy group. May be I should call for open submissions on the internet? Do you think Sprite would be interested?

Absolutely! She loves drawing horses!
I love it! My kids are already dreaming up some ideas.
What a great collaboration! Thank you so much for sharing! I’m going to have to “assign” giraffes to my kiddos really soon. I happen to love giraffes… they are my favorite land animals — along with elephants.

Julie ~ if you do the horse collaboration, please let me know. My daughter loves horses! I’m sure she would love to participate.

Thank you for the heads up on the Giraffe project. I hope you don’t mind, Jimmie, but I used your giraffe picture when I blogged about it! (I did give you credit and a link back to this post.)
I don’t know where you find out about such interesting things!
