I really love this. You said in another thread that you are sometimes 'timid' but this doesn't suggest that. The water is outstanding and the glow on the duckling is really nice.

[Garbonzo]

Thanks Patrick for your kindness. Perhaps reluctant would have been a better choice of words. I don't generally feel skilled enough to be offering suggestions to others. I try to do it more as food for thought. Anyway I'm glad you liked my little quacker.

Hahaha, I thought you meant 'timid' with your painting style, not your 'suggestion offering'. Your suggestions are most appreciated and valuable

Very very nice....the reflection of the bird in the water is great. This little guy looks like he knows where he is going.

With the way you have rippled the water you can feel the little duckling wobble.
A real nice painting.

Fun painting

Thankyou Piper, Jody and Gary, I'm really glad that you like the little guy. I generally have a hard time with water and I couldn't get it to look quite the way I wanted but he looks at home in it. :D Thanks again.
