The fairy penguin is one of hundreds of species harmed by entanglement and ingestion from plastic pollution.
The artist Katharine Owens is conducting a multi-year art project to create life sized portraits of the animals most at risk. She creates the portraits by hand-sewing film plastic waste that is difficult to recycle onto canvas.
The largest pieces (think whales) are created with the public. Hundreds of community members have sewed along on her projects to date. Follow the project at www.katowens.com.
The fairy penguin (Eudyptula minor) or little penguin is native to New Zealand.

Our watercolor pencils are a unique bridge between coloring and painting. Draw with them like any colored pencil, then dissolve the color with a wet brush to create a translucent watercolor wash.
Watercolor Pencils are more sustainable and safer for the environment! Unlike markers, whose usefulness is short term because they dry up and run out of ink, yet all that discarded plastic has a long-term impact on the environment.
Consider replacing your plastic markers and gel pens with this natural & environmentally-friendly alternative. Watercolor Pencils are ideal for young artists - no spills, no messy clean-up. Non-toxic and fun for all!
These extra large pencil sharpeners are the perfect tool to put a point on extra large crayons and watercolor pencils.
