About this work

This painting shows a close-up of a wild duck’s head and neck. The feathers are painted in earthy browns and muted golds, with darker shadows around the eyes and beak. The background is mostly dark, letting the bird stand out. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, especially on the feathers, giving them a rough, almost tactile look. This style makes the bird feel real and alive. Check out *impasto* to see how artists use thick paint like this.
