Penguin Greeting Card - The Enjoyment of Lone Skating - Blank
Description
This image features a tiny penguin skating on porcelain and is entitled 'The Enjoyment of Lone Skating'. It is available as a blank greeting card suitable for any occasion. The image is a photograph taken by myself from my ceramic 'Last of the Melting Snow' series. The series follows a family of penguins as they embark on a journey of discovery and wonder.
The photograph can easily be removed from the card to be displayed elsewhere or kept as a memento. The card is 203mm x 150mm and holds a photograph that is 177mm x 127mm.

Inspiration
'Last of the melting snow' is a series of one-off work that follows a family of penguins as they embark on a journey of discovery and wonder. These quirky striking pieces were influenced by my time spent in Finland watching the winter melt into spring. My use of porcelain combined with my distinctive original glaze is evocative of melting snow and a watery landscape. The tiny penguin figures capture a sense of loss and of not belonging. They view the world they find themselves in with a quizzical eye. This photograph shows a lone penguin skating quietly on porcelain ice.
