"On The Terrace"
Puffins have to be one of our most comical looking birds, but they are beloved by so many of us.
Many years ago, my husband and I visited the islands of Orkney. One of our favourite islands had a colony of puffins, which gave us our very first opportunity to see them.
We spent hours there observing them from a distance as they flew in and out of their burrows, beaks laden with fish, never quite looking like they were going to make that landing as their flight became more ungainly the closer they got to the ground!
Painting this brought back many happy memories of seeing the puffins all around the cliffs, entering or guarding underground nests 'on the terraces'.
Watercolour infused with flower essences and sprinkled with AquaBronze powder.
This painting comes mounted on a panel and framed. It has been treated with a special cold wax finish so that it does not need to be placed behind glass. This gives the colours a beautiful lustre and enables you to feel more connected to the art.
Size of painting: 14x18"
Overall size of framed piece: 16 x 20.5"
