I'll only be painting twenty Penguins in 2020. It's not because I'm sick of painting them - I love painting them - but for the last four years I've painted over 100 per year, and as appreciative I am of their success, I want to experiment and diversify more this coming year. Please contact me if you'd like to commission one - I take a 20% deposit, the most frequent sizes I paint are -

76cm x 51cm  -  $660
91cm x 61cm -  $940
101cm x 76cm  -  $1200
(prices in Australian dollars, includes delivery within Australia)

And for each commission I receive, I will donate 10% to the RFS.
