An Acrylic Painting of White Ducks

"Pekin Ducks"
12" x 36"
acrylic on wrapped canvas

Once upon a time, my young daughter and I made trips to parks to feed the ducks.
This painting is comprised of 5 of the many duck photos I have from those trips.
Although they are just your average barnyard
type of  'farm duck', I think there is something very special about them.  
I love their pristine 'whiteness' - it is so regal.  
The water and the reflections were most fun to paint.
This one will go to 'Independence Gallery' in June.

You can see them also on Fine Art America HERE.
