About the artwork

The penguins are ready to have a champagne race, that is until the "Take the Lead". This is part of my Their Fragile World series which shows animals in or around glass to symbolise how fragile their world can be at times. I always try to put a quirky spin on my art, not to undermine the message but to draw peoples attention to it.
