It's a constant job for puffin parents to feed their single puffling baby. For about 40 days, dawn till dusk, from hatching until fledging, they take it in turns to fish for sand eels and small fish. They must also protect their nest burrow from marauding gulls, which make repeated attempts steal the vulnerable chicks and to relieve any returning puffin of its beakful of fish.
This puffin has had a very successful fishing trip, but will it manage to avoid the gulls and deliver those sand eels to its waiting chick?
This was painted onto textured heavy weight paper, using Artist's professional acrylic paint.
It is ready to hang, and framed in a bespoke solid oak frame which is 26 cm square. The painted area is 12 cm square.
This series of small paintings are small enough to hang anywhere- an awkward space or on a staircase, but with enough presence to always look great- singly or as a group. Hang them in blocks, vertical rows or horizonal lines.
