Fall Fowl.
Acrylic on round canvas, 10 inches
Some leaves have started to change, bits of yellow are starting to show, and what a show it is! Soon there will be orange, yellow & read and green all starting to fall - a yearly miracle and sign winter is on the way. I love everything about fall from sweaters, hot teas, comfort meals, fuzzy blanket snuggling with dogs and a great book (all books are good), walks in the woods and more time to paint as the dogs prefer snuggling by the fire. What I don’t like about fall - hidden dog poop.
The ducks quack hello when they see me and run to the fence… as they know I am the ‘bringer of treats’. Watermelon & grapes and other little left overs. Ducks have blue eyes, hard to see unless in the right light - most photos I take they look black. Ducks being all white are a challenge to paint, just as all black cats and dogs.
I wanted sweaters on my ducks. Taaadaaa - the magic of paint. One has ‘duck feet’ usually always slightly turned in and it makes her all the more adorable. The other two gaggle about her, as ducks do. Ducks appear as though struggling as they waddle - slowly, try and catch one and you’ll soon see what a misrepresentation that waddling is. I hear they take winter better than chickens which I hope is true… we’ll soon find out.
I hope you have enjoyed my duck painting, it won’t be the last.. the other day they came running and I immediately thought of them as bowling pins.. it made me laugh out loud - sure to become a memory in acrylic.
Created to create.
