Dibujo para colorear de Jirafa (2 de 4)

Here the focus falls on the long neck and the patchwork of the coat. Following each panel of the pattern as it wraps around the body is oddly soothing, almost like fitting tiles together. There is a touch more detail than the opening sheet, which makes it a good one to settle into.

Acerca de: Jirafa

Giraffes live on the savannas of Africa and are the tallest of all land animals, with necks so long they can browse leaves well out of reach of other grazers. Despite that great height the neck holds the same number of bones as our own - just very large ones - and the netted pattern of the coat is unique to each animal, a little like a fingerprint.

The Jirafa has an easy, gentle appeal that crosses every border, a familiar favorite at zoos and a frequent sight in picture books for the young. It carries no difficult history, only a warm and universal charm, which is part of what makes it such an approachable and pleasant subject to color.

For coloring, the patchwork coat is the real pleasure. Filling each panel of the pattern and keeping a clean edge where the colors meet is good, gentle practice for the hand and eye working together, and the repetition has a quietly calming rhythm. The tall, bold shape makes the finished sheet striking enough to be worth displaying.
