Happy Penguin: Dare to Fly. Happy Birthday.
Happy Penguin: Dare to Fly. Happy Birthday.
A penguin wearing a party hat stands below colorful balloons spelling H-A-P-P-Y. He is holding the strings. He is completely committed to the moment. No reservations whatsoever.
That is the energy.
The Work
Happy Penguin is a 3D painting on glass from Jean-Pierre Weill Studios. The penguin floats in the composition in his party hat, each letter balloon floating at a slightly different depth behind the glass, the whole scene suspended in mid-celebration against a bright blue sky.
Why a Penguin
Penguins cannot fly. These balloons make it otherwise. That is worth celebrating.
The Birthday Gift That Actually Lands
Finding a unique birthday gift that is genuinely memorable and not just another candle or bottle of wine is harder than it should be. Happy Penguin is original wall art that the person will still have on their wall ten birthdays from now.
Collectors drawn to the celebratory spirit of Happy Penguin may also find that quality in Bear, where a polar bear floats through the sky on the same impossible logic, and in Monkey, where the same spirit of airborne joy takes a different shape entirely.
