"Cinnamon and Sugar" are two sweet giraffes. As you can tell, Sugar is trying to catch up with his mother. Giraffes are such amazing animals. I think I have always respected them for their height and grace.
Unfortunately, more than half the giraffe calves in the wild never become adults as they fall prey to predators like large cats. If they do reach adulthood, the average life expectancy of a giraffe is about 25 years in the wild and more than 30 in captivity. A fun fact about giraffes is they sleep for between 20 minutes to 2 hours a day. Even when they sleep for the longer period, they do so in 20-minute naps.
Painted in oils on an 8" x 16" x 0.50" wrapped canvas. Sides are painted, so this painting can be hung unframed or easily framed. All of my prices are listed on my blog photo listing, or please visit my website @ sandracutrer.com for pricing and more information.
