Motu – Pitcairn

COUNTRY:
Motu

DESIGN:
When a couple in my medical practice mentioned they were going to Pitcairn Island I got so excited to paint some pigeons –  I could hardly sleep.  This one is closeup of a segment of the northern coast of the island in the vicinity of Matt’s Rocks.  I enjoyed doing it as a twin stamp without the white border at the common boundary.  A dream come true *place* for me.  Unfortunately, the post office there did not cancel my paintings.  You can’t win ’em all !
