“Gay Penguins” Original Acrylic Painting

This original painting features two male penguins cozying up in front of a rainbow background.

First made popular by the TV show, Parks and Rec, same-sex penguin couples have actually been around as long as all penguins have! There are many documented cases of male-male and female-female penguin couples raising offspring in more successful couplings than other opposite sex penguin couples.
