Polymer Clay Penguins

I've just put the finishing touches on a pair of beach-loving penguins. These particular critters were modeled on the Gentoo Penguin, in case you were questioning their anatomical accuracy (wait...can penguins hold buckets?) Yes indeed, the 'penguin at the beach' iconography has already been widely exploited in the field of juvenile illustration, and while perhaps not a very original concept.. I find it pretty HILARIOUS!

  1. Hi Caroline - I saw your post on the NESCBWI list serv. I was in the Illustrator's Academy with you. You're site looks great!! And your little characters/worlds are so charming. Lovely work!!
    BTW - I have tried to do this backwards--create polymer characters to draw!
