Brown pelican

(pelicanus occidentalis)

This is a giclee print of my original pen, ink and watercolour illustration of the gregarious Brown Pelican (pelicanus occidentalis).

‘The Brown Pelican is the smallest of the 8 subsecies of pelican and is found on the coasts of the Americas.

Aside from the obvious difference in plumage colour and size to other pelican, the brown pelican is characterized by its fishing method of plunge-diving to catch it’s prey from a height rather than co-operative fishing on the surface. It feeds mainly on fish, but also the occasional amphibian or crustaceon. California Brown Pelicans are unique in that during the mating season in winter months, they acquire bright red/olive throat, brown hindneck, yellow and white head colors..’

Printed onto beautifully textured 225gsm Somerset enhanced 100% cotton paper using professional pigment inks, this print is available in two sizes: A4 and A3, unframed or framed (black or white frames available). All prints come signed and dated by the artist.
