Day 3 - Shoveler by Margaret Nisbet

Eye-catching colours - he's lovely, Margaret

Really like this Margaret. As well as the drake, I love the movement in the water, those black lines just make it.

He looks very purposeful Maureen. I admire your tenacity in attempting to paint every day. I'm just too lazy.

You are doing so well with your own challenge Margaret, this is another cracker!

I love how the neck shines Maureen. I wish I had your tenacity.

He is lovely, Margaret. Good luck with the challenge.

Love the palette and the wonderful washes. He's lovely, Margaret!

Thank you all for your encouragement :)

Beautiful colours ,love it.

Thank you Annick :)

Is the pressure getting to you Margaret, if it’s any consolation I would have folder already! The water looks very watery good result all round.

Thanks, Fiona! :) This duck did reduce me to swearing a bit - the beak is actually a strange shape but that makes it easy to look a bit weird in a painting.

Love the iridescence on his neck well captured Margaret.

Thank you Carole :)
