Duck Life by Hilary Forbes

Very well painted Hilary – and I like your portfolio. By the way: I wouldn't tear up and throw away paintings. Failed works help you a lot in your own development. Sometimes even cutouts from the "waste" result in pretty, small random works of art.

So good - the iridescence is wonderful

Excellent painting, Hilary - it's obvious how much fun you had painting this!

I went down to the river yesterday to take photos of the willows but this little character appeared, and followed me around quacking loudly, so I went home and had fun painting her - instead of the willows. ( I think she's a hybrid, not a mallard).
