Second Stage - WIP Wood Duck


Work In Progress- Second Stage 
12" x 16" acrylic on panel 

Guess it is pretty obvious that I made the water more blue now instead of with a lot of green in it.    This is still very much unfinished and I need to tone down the water more and correct and add some things.   Hopefully it will be finished tomorrow or the next day.   

I welcome any questions and comments !

Wood Duck - Work In Progress


Wood Duck - Work In Progress
12" x 16" Acrylic on panel 

This is a brand new start on a favorite subject of mine - the Wood Duck drake, but also the ripples and colors in the water are always fascinating for me to paint.  This image was photographed outside.  Below is a photo taken inside on my easel.  Note the difference .....


Colors always look bluer when photographed outside; however, the lights inside on this photo is not 100% true either.   I am also working on other paintings, so please check back real soon !
