Last Light captures the arresting silhouette of a Tufted Puffin in dynamic flight across a tranquil sea at dusk. The artist employs coloured pencil with exceptional delicacy, rendering the puffin’s bold form in velvety black, accented by the vivid orange of its bill and feet, which glow with a quiet intensity against the encroaching twilight.
The background dissolves into a luminous gradient of rose, amethyst, and indigo, evoking the final moments of daylight as the horizon yields to night. This subtle interplay of colour and atmosphere imbues the composition with a profound sense of transience, inviting the viewer to linger in the threshold between day’s end and darkness.
More than a study of avian grace, Last Light is a meditation on the ephemeral beauty of migration and the enduring rhythms of the natural world—a testament to resilience in the vast spaces where ocean and sky converge.
