I’ve never done penguins before. They don’t even qualify as birds using my criterion of “ask a person what a bird does and they will answer, ‘fly'”. But, here they are. I like the abstract compositional qualities of this piece. These pieces are quickly becoming all about color.
The thing with birds is not flight but feathers. Flightless birds: penguins, kiwi, dodo, (those last two, along with others, share extinct status), ostriches, and emus, and then some miscellaneous rails, grebes, and ducks which usually have the word flightless in their names.
Love your birds!
