Kangaroo and Giraffe




The Brief: A giraffe and a kangaroo fighting over an apple
The Critique: Where's the dinosaur?! Draw me a dinosaur right now Daddy!
Job Status: Rejected
Artists Comments: After completing the project I documented the two year old art director's instructions and reaction. She took offense at this and tried to erase my notes.
When I took away my eraser, she yelled "I don't like your notes!", and scribbled all over them with my pencil. She then ran to the bathroom and ran water over the piece of paper. "Look at them now Daddy!"

This is really clever. My children are growing up fast and those days seem long gone. Have you tried switching roles...she draws what you ask for? But don't let her take notes on you... ha ha

I have a three year old art director too--I don't take many jobs from her. Lovely piece and very funny story.
