Bauhinia leaves (the coat pattern)
Rounded leaves overlap like roof tiles, a clever layout that catches light while shedding rain.
Autumn leaves symbolize change, patience and natural beauty.

Materials & framing
Printed and framed to order, ready to hang when it arrives. Printed on premium luster paper with rich color and fine detail, protected behind a clear acrylic front, and set in a solid wood frame: White (gallery white), Black (matte black) or Red Oak (warm wood).
Printed to order on thick matte paper, shipped rolled for your own frame. We use 189 gsm (10.3 mil) matte paper with a smooth, glare-free finish and archival inks. It ships rolled in a sturdy cardboard tube, may hold a slight curl, and flattens overnight under a book. It fits any standard frame of that size. Prefer it framed? Choose Framed above for a solid wood frame in White, Black or Red Oak.
Size & fit
Available in 10″×10″ and 16″×16″.
Hanging hardware is included. These measurements refer to the print size. The wood frame adds about 0.75″ on each side, so the framed piece is roughly 1.5″ wider and taller than the print.
For unframed prints, the selected size is the paper size and fits a standard frame of that size. A frame adds about 1 inch on each side.
The Story Behind the Artwork
“Every leaf, twig, petal, and seed becomes a brushstroke.”
The giraffe is not one of Africa's Big Five, but to me she is truly one of the most extraordinary animals, magnificent, unique, and noble. Her incredible height has always fascinated me, and there is a beautiful contrast in her: a sense of gentleness and grace alongside a powerful, unforgettable presence.
I once had the privilege of feeding a giraffe at a wildlife rescue center in Kenya, an experience that deepened my admiration for this remarkable creature. I composed her here from real leaves and blooms, and I love the thought of her standing tall and gentle in a child's room or a family home.

The Botanicals Behind the Artwork
6 real botanicals composed the original artwork
Shirley arranged each leaf, pod, stem, and natural fiber by hand before photographing the finished composition.
Cassia fistula and carob pods (the horns)
Curved pods like carob dry hard and sweet, and carob has long stood in as a chocolate substitute.
Seed pods represent promise, fertility and hidden sweetness.
Palm leaf base fiber (the face)
A single big leaf can gather more sun than a handful of small ones, at the cost of tearing in wind.
Broad leaves stand for shelter and generosity.
Fern fronds or rosemary sprigs (the tree)
A fern frond unrolls from a coiled tip called a fiddlehead, opening like a slow green spring.
Ferns symbolize sincerity, shelter and eternal youth.
Ear pod tree seeds (Enterolobium) (the nose and eye)
Dark berries pack pigments that double as sunscreen for the seeds tucked inside them.
Berries signify abundance and quiet reward.
Dried catkin or flower spike (the mane)
Catkins are droopy flower clusters that hand their pollen to the wind instead of paying bees to carry it.
Catkins symbolize early promise and the turning of seasons.
