    Hello everyone!!
    Ok, wrong season, but I had finally found a 5th cast iron penguin (the one on the far right) about a year and a half ago, but I lost it. I finally found it stashed away in a trunk a few weeks ago and painted it early yesterday morning. I was so glad to find this fellow as these are hard to come by. It's taken me several years to collect all five of these penguins. These were distributed by HenFeathers several years ago and were originally painted solid antique white. I felt that they needed some color and painted them the colors I thought they should be. These each measure 7" tall and the each weigh 2lbs 7oz. They're a two piece design held together with a single screw.

    Thanks so much for stopping in for a look!!

    Scott

      Jenni,
      You're too kind! Thank you very so much. Painting isn't so much a skill as it mostly pivots on a steady hand, using the right paints and using the correct high quality brushes. So, I firmly believe that if I can do it, anyone can if they try. I absolutely love to paint!!!!
