Available as an original 5″ x 5″ in (10″ x 10″ x 1″, framed at $1800) or as a limited edition, numbered, archival print (4″ x 6″ printed on slightly larger paper at $55). The original is painted and illuminated (gilded) in watercolor, ink, gouache, and 24k gold leaf on real animal vellum.

Medieval style miniature portrait of a North American porcupine at the San Diego Zoo. He is well known for preferring to sit upright in this position with his paws braced against his enclosure. He thoughtfully posed this way while I took at least 20 photos to capture his very unique personality.
