"Puffin's Cove"

Picture
Puffin's Cove, 20"x16" Charcoal on Canvas, August 2021
​

       Puffins hold a special place in my heart because they remind me of my aunt Betty. You see, my aunt was a very inspiring woman who touched the lives of many through the non-profit program "Birder's Exchange" and efforts involving birding. When she passed away, I was amazed by the amount of letters and stories that flooded through the mail all talking about the lives she touched, the people she inspired and the legacy she left. 
​
       This artwork dated back to a memory of mine that involved puffins. She had a painting of puffins on her wall and I would always look at it when I was younger. As a result I became quite fond of puffins because I thought their shape and colors were so perfectly created. Therefore, I wanted to create a drawing that would capture the energy of the seaside with the puffins as the main event. As a result, Puffin's Cove was born.
