Alek.

Youth t-shirt

This youth puffin t-shirt is for someone starting to figure out who they are: it features Alek, a quiet puffin who watches before acting, with a portrait I created for my Animal Kinhood series. The reserved one from the north, one of those who listen more than they talk.

The real species

Atlantic puffin.

Fratercula arctica

The lights of my town send the pufflings off course. A cardboard box fixes it.

Open North Atlantic sea during the non-breeding months, where it lives as a solitary pelagic far from any coast; in summer, coastal cliffs with diggable soil for breeding, mainly in Iceland (60% of the world population) and in the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago, where the Heimaey colony holds around 830,000 pairs, the largest in the world.

The One Who Sits and Watches

There's a story about Alek that fits exactly the age when you're figuring out who you are. He went six weeks unable to work and still went to the workshop, every day, just to watch: he saw what shortcuts the others took, where they wasted time, which tool was always in the wrong spot. He said nothing for six weeks. When he could, he reorganized the entire workshop without asking anyone, and suddenly everything ran faster. His boss looked at him and just said "good." That quiet watching before moving turns out, a lot of the time, to be the way you improve things.

A Puffin Who Moves at His Own Pace

What the t-shirt puts on your chest is the face: a calm puffin, front-on, in his usual clothes. I kept it front-on with no background: it reads at a glance and holds up to washing like any garment you wear a lot. Good for class or for going out, without drawing attention. If you're curious what this puffin is like on the inside, it's all there in Alek's life, and there are more t-shirts from the same family in the collection.
