Jenkinson’s Aquarium is the key attraction of Jenkinson’s Boardwalk at Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey. I’ve been lucky enough to paint for the Aquarium’s wonderful staff since 2002, including underwater murals for three of the big tanks.

In June 2012, I painted this seaside scene for the Aquarium’s penguins. In the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, I read touching news reports about the Jenkinson’s staff lovingly caring for the animals and fish there.
