Harlequin of the Sea - The Brightly Colored Pulcinella

Let yourself be won over by the charm and unmistakable charm of this unique work, a little jewel that brings the joy of the North Sea.

The Atlantic Puffin is portrayed with its unmistakable tuxedo plumage, a stark contrast of deep black and pure white.

The chromatic fulcrum, and its most characteristic element, is the massive and very lively beak, painted with precise brushstrokes in Red, Yellow and Blue/Slate Grey.

The background is kept light and atmospheric, suggesting the cool, misty air of sea cliffs.

The work exploits the ability of watercolor to render the soft texture of the plumage, while the beak, rendered with saturated colors and clean lines, immediately attracts the eye.

The small size makes this Pulcinella a precious object, full of character and discreet joy.

Your space will gain in charm, originality, and a touch of bold color, thanks to the presence of this funny and charming creature.

This work was created entirely by hand, celebrating the ability of watercolor to bring marine subjects to life with great effectiveness.
