Peek a Boo Giraffe.
A fun monochromatic painting I recently did using all Sepia watercolor for this “peek-a-booing” giraffe.
Did it make you tilt your head?
Peek a Boo!
P.S. I am pretty excited to be the “Artist of the Month” at a sweet, fun and delicious coffee shop near me – Wunderbar Coffee & Crepes.
Wunderbar serves Italian inspired coffees, French crepes and American grilled cheese sandwiches in a historic German town north of Pittsburgh named Harmony, PA.
If you are anywhere nearby, I hope you will check it out and experience the wonder of Wunderbar. It is not your run of the mill cafe. Their focus is “to provide a fun and unique space where everyone is welcome to gather, connect and create relationships, for a moment or a lifetime. Where the collision of senses and caffeine fueled inspiration explode and splatter. An open minded destination where transcending concepts and ideas are explored in depth and shared with everyone to experience together and by themselves. A refuge from empty promises and meaningless stories. An escape from a suffocating environment full of pre-existing notions that condition us to be the soul-less product of our over commercialized world. A breathing, living, self sustaining space that is an embracing work of art in itself. A place you can’t wait to return to!”
Here I am Saturday after hanging up my art. Thanks Wunderbar!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
Congratulations, Jodi, on your newest exhibition–it looks really cool. I love today’s giraffe and the creative way that you fit it into the frame. 🙂

Benjamin does not permit me to make comments on his “letters”, so I will add my comment here. Benjamin was so excited to see his friends, Mr. Mike and Miss JoyRoses on “My Jodi’s ‘log”. This gave him the idea that we need to send this to some of his other ‘log friends like Ms. Liz and Miss Jill, so “we can all be friends together”! I told him that Ms. Liz will get it in her mailbox, but we will send it to Miss Jill. I had to laugh at his saying you are wearing a giraffe coat, he also mentioned that you have holes in your jeans just like “mommy’s”. Wunderbar sounds like my kind of place, coffee and crepes!! But not just because it sounds positively yumalicious, but because they have the good sense to display your talents for all to see! Congratulations! Thank-you for sharing “Boo” and your exhibit!!

Namaste, Miss Jodi! I had an email from our mutual young friend, Benjamin, who told me to visit this post, for he knew I would love this giraffe! And I absolutely do love the giraffe! Yes, it made me turn my head before I even thought about it! Congratulations on your ‘Artist of the Month’ award … you certainly deserve it! I occasionally get to Pennsylvania … if I’m ever in the area, I will check out Wunderbar and as after Miss Jodi! Hugs!

Ahhhh … no big mystery there. Benjamin and I share a love of animals … all sorts of animals. Most every Monday and Saturday, I post a cute or funny animal video for him, and on occasion I do a post solely about unique animals. So, he thought of me when he saw your giraffe and sent it to me! 😊
