This is a painting in progress. Was standing along the Yellow Breeches one day doing some plein air painting when this mother duck and her babies came paddling by. I was so glad that I had brought my camera with me! Want to add more color and reflective qualities to the water, and do a little more work on the ducklings.

Very sweet. She has her hands full!
this is going to be gorgeous when its finished, reminds me of a similar photo in my ref. photo file that I shot in the spring of a duck with 13 ducklings, thanks for your kind comments on my blog.
Oh, they are so cute! Beautiful piece Claire!
Thanks for the comments, everyone!
Hi Claire. You've really captured the mother duck's sweet expression in her eyes. Good job!
This is looking fabulous, can't wait to see the finished piece!
It looks good already! The ducks are so cute, too.
Thanks so much Dana and Lilly - I appreciate the comments.
These are great - can't wait to see what you add! Love your DSFDF too... there should be purple sprinkles!! M
Thank you, Mitzi! I agree with you - there should be purple sprinkles!!!
Love this sweet composition! You did such a great job, especially on the transparency of the water and the way their tiny feet show below the surface.
