Welsh Puffin Painting

< Prev    Next >    Prints >

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.

Painted on Loxley Gold stretched canvas, 16 inch x 12 inch x 1/3 inch - Here I am working on the painting before it was completed. This puffin painting can be framed, or hung un-framed.
