Inspired by the St Kilda breakwater penguin colony in Melbourne, Australia. Viewing time is after sunset. The breakwater is located at the end of the St Kilda pier, past the kiosk. 

Having a rather spontaneous night with friends back in 2010 sitting at the end of the St. Kilda Pier for hours watching these little fairy penguins quite literally putting on a show for us left an impression on me for over a decade. I later incorporated the fairy penguin couple from a famous photograph by Tobias Baumgaertner that went viral during 2020 covid lockdown. I felt this couple as a feature in my painting so eloquently captured their essence and their mate for life philosophy. 

Penguin Parade at Twilight has become one of my famous bespoke paintings that I graciously recreate to order. Each painting is unique and none are ever alike. Every painting has its own unique variation and alternative sizes are available upon request.
