Protective is a Father
Emperor Penguins are known to be the best dads. They keep the egg, and the chick (once it hatches) warm throughout the chilly winters while the mother goes hunting for food. The chick stays warm and protected between the father's leg, burrowed under the fur. The award for Best Father goes to Emperor Penguins!
So for Father's Day 2024, I decided to paint them and in turn give an ode to my father and appreciate my husband's protective gesture that I see everyday for our daughter.
This is a reproduction of the original painting that was done with gouache and embroidery. It has been printed on acid free, heavy 88lb. Polar Matte Paper using a professional fine art printer. This is a borderless archival print and comes in two sizes that can be easily framed.
There is an option of buying these prints stuck on an edgless frame that is painted with matching acrylic paint and then protected with a layer of Liquitex Matte Varnish. Both framed and unframed Prints are hand embellished with gold details to add that extra shine to them and varnished with a layer of Krylon Gloss Varnish. Each print comes with a small info card printed with the above - mentioned desciption of the artwork.
All sizes, as either an unframed or framed print, are provided in the drop down menus. Please make sure you choose the correct one in both.
Each print is made to order, so please allow 2-3 business days for unframed prints and 6-8 business days for framed prints prior to shipping.
