My collage Percival The Penguin was accepted into this fall 2021 show.

On Magdalena Island in late March, many of the penguins had left for warmer climes. Among those still hanging around was this penguin, who seemed to be thinking that he did not want to go to the usual penguin haunts, he wanted to travel the world. He donned his bowler hat, his stilettos, grabbed his Louis Vuitton handbag, tied on his bow tie, and started dreaming of the places he wanted to visit. This collage envivions where he might have gone.
