Resting Baby Mallard

5" x 7"

Oil on Gessoboard

This family of Mallards were preening themselves and then napping in the sun.  I did most of this with a palette knife and then switched to a brush to put in some final details.

I took a lot of photos of animals at one of the local Fall Fairs.  The sheep were such interesting characters with such personalities.  I am working on a larger painting, 30" x 40", of three sheep that I will post when finished.

Someone saw this piece when I was working on it and wanted to purchase it when it was finished.  I wish that would happen with every painting.

I found a family of Mallard ducks near the water on Lake Ontario.  I was somewhat hidden by bushes so I was able to get some great photos of the babies with their mother without them being bothered by me.

These are two baby Canada Geese walking up from the water to have a snack.  I was able to get quite close to them but under the watchful eye of the mother and father.  I have posted the picture below of one of them keeping an eye on me.

I think it is Father Goose with Mother Goose right behind him.  He let me get a little closer to him than he did to his babies.
