Tap Dancing Pink Giraffes

This Giraffe can do it all! 



This amazing giraffe was suggested by my sister, Lauren, who has made the wonderful suggestion of the Penguin and the Balloon Stand. This newest creations is one of my favorites and was a more challenging drawing. Giraffes are difficult to draw, let alone tap dancing. I was originally going to draw the giraffe tap dancing on all four legs, but it's really hard to make a tuxedo look right when the front of it is facing the ground, so standing giraffe it is.

This Giraffe, named Felix, was part of the wonderful Zoological Academy of Dance in the North American Region, aka ZADNAR. The ZADNAR hosts a yearly recital featuring their best dancing animals. Felix was the star of the show, with his tap dancing abilities, second only to the ballerina hippos that were previously featured in the major motion picture, Fantasia! Felix is very insecure about his feminine color and wanted to balance that out with his blue cummerbund, tie, and cane. He knows that society understands his plights and realizes that pink should no longer be a gender specific color!
