Motivating Giraffe

And you look adorable too!

I didn’t know, that’s very cool!! Thanks for checking out the blog :-)
I did not know about that and I love giraffes but I am also very passionate about Peace and Non-Violent Communication.. What a coincidence?!
I followed you instantly as soon as I read your username: motivating giraffe. And I am not disappointed. Cheers, and keep up the wicked work!
You are extremely talented.
It took only a few minutes of reading MG for me to follow you. Keep up the great work. I’m hoping that I can use some of your images on my site, integrated into some future posts that I have in mind, with full credit of course. And as soon as I can figure out how, I want to have your link on my blog.
Please come by for a visit, and let me know what you think.
Cheers!

Penny, wonderful work!
Writing from the States (Chicago) because I’ve been sharing your Giraffes via social media, one a day, for the past couple of months, and everyone is IN LOVE with them.
I wanted to thank you for creating them and for allowing folks to share the positivity with their communities.
I’d LOVE to give you more credit than I have been and perhaps funnel commissioned work your way. If you’re interested in doing a guest blog post on my blog, let me know!

Penny,
If you ever feel like collaborating on any poetry, drop me a line at cmrsyk1985@hotmail.com. Btw, you should write a children’s book. Stop thinking about doing it, and just do it already!
Will do :) Haha that’s the goal, I’ll get there one day!
I know you will. You already should be there, Penny ;) You already put artists at The New Yorker to shame…
Thanks for the follow! I love the bold colors in your artwork! It is so previous and cute!

Beautiful work!
Hi Penny,
As always…beautiful work. Your drawings inspired one of my poems and I had to share it everyone. Check it out if you get the chance. https://sleepymist.wordpress.com/2015/04/20/its-okay-to-not-be-okay/
Thanks again for all you do! I always look forward to next picture. Even though, personally I am an elephant person I think the giraffe is starting to come in a close second.
Thank you for visiting my blog and following ! Your work is really inspirational !
Best
Susan
Thanks Susan! Love your art!
I love this site! Giraffes are one of my fave animals! I have a small one in my home office — https://brokefish.wordpress.com/2015/03/31/hiding/
So cute!!
Thanks! I can’t even remember where I found it. Maybe a yard sale…?
Thanks for following my blog! Nice Giraffes, by the way :)
Hi Penny. Thank you for following my cartoon blog at Smile Sketches. Because of your love of giraffes, I found one I did back in 1990 and posted it in your honour. See my April 08, 2015 posting at https://smilesketches.wordpress.com/2015/04/08/how-low-can-you-go/
This one’s for you, Penny.
Cheers.

I love the pic with the giraffe holding the barbell with the saying “Get back up” I’d love a pic to hang on the wall in my home gym. Is that a possibility?
I just added it to the Etsy shop for you :)

Hi Penny. Today I discovered your site and I’m happy because the giraffe is the symbol of the NVC – Nonviolent communication ( Marshall B.Rosenberg). I’m studying the NCV in Italy and I love it. NVC uses two animals as symbols; the giraffe is the land animal with the biggest heart; with her long neck she has a good overview and clear vision. The giraffe stands for compassionate communication. The second animal is the jackal, representing competition. I have a blog : http://parlaregiraffa.blogspot.it/
Thank you for your creativity and inspiration! Valeria
wish you weren’t giving this up.
but that is Life
