About this work

This painting shows a single duck standing on a muddy bank near water. Its feathers are detailed in browns and blacks, with a bright yellow beak and orange feet. Behind it, a log and some plants sit in the background, while two smaller ducks swim in the water. The duck’s feathers are painted with careful attention to light and shadow, making them look almost three-dimensional. The soft, warm colors give the scene a quiet, natural feel.
