This puffin painting was inspired by a recent trip to Skomer island. Puffins are known for their comical appearance and colourful beaks, they are sometimes called 'the clowns of the sea', and are a popular attraction on Skomer Island, off the coast of Pembrokeshire, here in Wales.

Skomer is a haven for wildlife, including puffins, Manx shearwaters, dolphins, and seals. Puffins can be seen on Skomer from March to August.
