Puffin Pair Up There

Puffin Pair Up There

Painted October 10, 2024 from two photos of Icelandic puffins (Fratercula arctica) flying in the Icelandic Bay of Breidafjordur in the Bjarnareyjar Islands archipelago where I lived solo on one of the uninhabited islands, Budey, for five mid-summer weeks in 2005 rowing between the islands, 9" x 12" (w x h), using Daniel Smith, Schmincke Horadam, and Winsor & Newton watercolors, selected for light fastness and permanence, and Uniball waterproof fade proof ink on 140 lbs. Fabriano Artistico cold press rough 100% cotton extra white watercolor paper, framed, $400
