Tribute Giraffe with Attendant Painting

I had to do a project for my Art history class. We had a choice of either writing an essay or making a copy of a work of art.  I had to write an essay for another class, so I chose to recreate an artwork.  I chose the painting titled "Tribute Giraffe with Attendant" which used to be attributed to Shen Du from 1414.  You can see it on wikipeida link here link

The painting is on fabric, but not silk because of the cost and the availability.  The pictures are cut off, it was a little too large for my scanner and too hard to photograph.
