We're Coming - Canvasback and Brood
This is a 12x16 acrylic done on Ampersand pastel board, slightly sanded w/ 400 paper to remove a little tooth. I was happy the way it took the paint and the colors seemed to hold there brilliance quite well. C&C welcome and appreciated.

Very nice indeed. I think they are waiting for me to throw out some bread for them and I feel like I'm standing right there.

Re: We're Coming - Canvasback and Brood
Thanks to all for your very kind comments. After working hard and long on a painting, it is so nice to hear good (or bad) comments. Being alone with my thoughts about it can be depressing. I always think about what I should have done.

Very nice details and feather work

Also the thread title would make a great zombie movie title.
