My brother Joel and sister-in-law Andrea recently had a bouncin' baby boy named Isaac, so for this Christmas I decided to make them a unique gift for the little guy. They have decided to use the theme of giraffes to decorate his room (partly because they are both so tall) so I wanted to do something to add to it. This is the final piece. It was plaked on a 10" x 24" board and turned out pretty snazzy. If you want you can check out pictures of Isaac (and his parents) at Joel's link to the right. Let me know what you think!

Great piece, Ben! I like how you stretched out the proportions, the blocks are a nice addition as well. All the best to ya this year man!
It's awesome, Ben! I also think it's awesome that you used the word "snazzy." That's pretty much the coolest word ever. ;-)
Happy New Year!
Beautiful piece! Very professional looking!

Seriously though, it'll be something he can cherish forever and I think Joel is right, for now, you've come out on top for favourite uncle!
