Portrait of a Puffin, Watercolour Painting (Completed)


Dear friends, I am delighted that my Portrait of a Puffin watercolour painting is completed. This is my 28th Limited Edition Fine Art Prints (only 7 prints in the world). The Print size: 30″ × 22.1″ on Hahnemühle German Etching Paper. 

"This intimate portrait captures the striking beauty of the Atlantic puffin in quiet profile, its vivid beak aglow with warm tones of red, orange, and golden yellow. Painted in watercolour with fine detail and care, the puffin emerges with quiet strength and clarity, its feathers softly layered and its eye full of gentle alertness.

Set against a soft, impressionist-inspired background—gentle shades of green and blue that echo sea cliffs, distant grasses, and misty coastal air—the composition creates a sense of calm and open space. The puffin stands centered yet unconfined, as if caught in a moment of stillness before motion.

Balancing realism with atmosphere, this piece offers a contemplative pause within nature’s quiet beauty. Each brushstroke invites the viewer to slow down, to notice the elegance in stillness, and to connect with the gentle dignity of this beloved seabird."
