Puffin with Sand Eels

"Puffin with Sand Eels" is a highly detailed watercolour painting capturing one of the most iconic moments in seabird life — the return of the puffin from the sea, bearing a beakful of shimmering sand eels. This scene symbolizes both devotion and endurance: the quiet bravery of nature providing for its own. Painted with delicate layers of watercolour and a deep reverence for wildlife, this artwork brings to life the textures of wet feathers, the glint of fresh catch, and the quiet strength behind this beautiful bird’s eyes. I painted this moment to honour the quiet strength of the puffin — its persistence, devotion, and dignity. To me, this bird is more than just a seabird; it’s a symbol of the unsung hero — the one who provides, protects, and perseveres.

Only 7 collectors will ever own this iconic watercolour of a puffin with sand eels. This artwork is part of an exclusive Limited Edition of 7 Fine Art Prints. Once all 7 prints are sold, no further reproductions will be made — no reprints, no open editions. The Print size is – 23″ × 28.1″. Printed on Hahnemühle German Etching Paper (310gsm, Matt, textured) using archival giclée inks for rich, lasting color and detail. A numbered Certificate of Authenticity is included, featuring a digitally printed copy of the artist’s original hand-signed signature.
