Green Sea Turtle

Green Sea Turtles are found nearly worldwide, but have a select number of preferred nesting/hatching sites to which they will return as adults. Little is known of the sea turtle's first five years of life, but under favorable circumstances he or she may live to age 80.

Green Sea Turtles are so named because of the color of their innards rather than outtards -- to put it bluntly, the fat of their flesh is greenish. But people wouldn't know that unless they were viewing them as dinner ingredients instead of beautiful creatures. Now they are a protected (in some places, endangered) species. If the artist may be forgiven for depicting them in deep green, please enjoy their image.

This 19"x19" handpainted pillow is crafted with all-weather fabric suitable for all climates and pretty much no-maintenance. Can be hosed clean or spot cleaned or even machine-washed gentle/cool. The removable polyester fiberfill insert is generously fluffy and oh, so comfy under your head in a hammock. Or lawn chair. Or on a beach blanket. Or garden bench . . . you get the idea.

Nontoxic permanent textile paints will stay fresh-looking for years, and as each pillow is handpainted they vary just a bit. Custom colors at no extra charge. Not a transfer or reprint, but an original. Designed, painted, sewn, stuffed, signed and copyrighted by the artist on a small island in Washington State, USA. Enjoy!
