Duck's Coop

Really lovely painting Linda, great reflections

Amazing reflections Linda.

we used to have a pair of mandarins in our garden, that whats comes of having an eccentric as a dad . you havre captured thier sleekness they never had a feather out of place. all those reflections must have been a labour of love. This is a picture with astory.

Beautiful. I love the patterns.

Just found your gallery and had to leave a comment on this amazing painting. Those reflections must have driven you to distraction ( they would me) but what a fantastic pattern they make around the duck. Many thanks for your comment on my latest pastel painting, much appreciated.

Thank you all - yes the reflections did drive me to distraction. The whole painting took three days. the reflections were done with the aid of a mapping pen and masking fluid.

Linda such a pleasure when a fellow artist drops by and leaves interesting comments. Thank you. I think the right title for this piece is indeed driven to distractions. The reflections compete with the subject I feel. Take care with photographs because if we are not careful, very careful, thats what we end up with a copy of a photograph.

This is really lovely with the wonderful pattern of the reflections.

Thank you Tony.
