With the recent fires that moved through parts of Australia, I was moved to paint this fella.
A friend on social media decided he needed a name and went on to research a bunch of names and their meanings, and the result was Captain Kai Barrat.
“Kai” means From the Sea; Ocean; Earth; Victorious; Brave with Spear; Forgiveness; To Rejoice; Fire; Pure. And “Barrat” means brave as a bear.

Another penguin-themed illustration done for a recent sticker pack of mine to raise funds for a local organization which does a lot of work rescuing and rehabilitation our coastal birds, including the endangered african penguin.
If I get enough sales of this design here, I can donate that much more to their cause.
