VILANO PIER 2

VILANO PIER 2 is an original oil painting on a 5 x 7 canvas panel, inspired by time spent observing and photographing pelicans in St. Augustine. The pelican is first recognized for  the remarkable gular pouch, capable of holding up to 3 gallons of water—far exceeding the bird’s stomach capacity.
The work reflects the pelicans’ vital social behavior, essential for their survival, capturing both their grace and communal spirit. At Janal Koenig, this painting exemplifies our commitment to authentic wildlife art, offering a unique blend of observation and creativity.
