Little blue penguins live in Australia and New Zealand. And they shred

These are Australia's native penguins - Fairy Penguins, also called Little Penguins because they are so small and adorable. They live on Australian shores as far as Sydney Harbour.

This design is created from my original watercolour artwork, which was based on my own reference photos. Totally unique!
