PUFFIN ON A PEBBLE

I have always had a soft spot for puffins. Having spent two summers living with puffins I feel that I know them very well. They have a very hard life, being constantly harrassed by gulls during the summer months, they have to face the hardship of a winter in the North Atlantic. Most of my puffin sculptures have originated from St Kilda studies, or Skoma studies. I have more puffin sketches than any other bird. Limited Edition of 30

Puffin with Feather

Some years ago I was lucky enough to spend a month on St Kilda. It is a wonderful place, 45 miles west of the Outer Hebrides and is the breeding ground for tens of thousands of puffins. During my stay I spent many happy hours watching and sketching the antics of these enchanting birds. It is no coincidence that many of my sculptures are of puffins. Limited Edition of 30
