Giraffe; framed image, mounted and printed on card and handmade paper

One of our 'Curious Creatures of Bracklesham Bay' series of images. The groynes which we saw on Bracklesham and Wittering beaches had been shaped and sculpted into wonderful and intriguing forms by the actions on them over many years of the waves and tides. For those unfamiliar with them, groynes are wooden structures placed on beaches to counter the erosion caused by those waves and tides. Instead, the erosion acts on the groynes to create these beautiful shapes. The colour and shape of this groyne immediately brought to mind a giraffe - so that's what we did, just adding the neck, body and legs. The photo of the groyne is printed onto handmade paper and added to the design. The frame is 230mm x 230mm x 20mm, and can be wall hung or can stand alone. Choose between a black, white or wood frame. The item will be sent, boxed, via Royal Mail 2-3 day, tracked service. The item code is 32-Giraffe/Pr/Si
