Description

“The aim of this watercolour work was to capture the beautiful colours of this delightful Mandarin duck, and also to try and create the illusion of the ripples in the water around the duck’s body.

I especially enjoyed producing the fine detail on the body of the duck, using coloured and white pens for the finest of feathers on his neck. The sumptuous teal blue colour emphasised the golden and russet shades, creating a lovely balance of shades that only Mother Nature could ever have come up with!

The greywater reflected what must have been a fairly overcast sky on the day the reference photo was taken (courtesy of Lesley Charlesworth), and it was very loose washes of different greys which built the feeling of ripples”  Helen Worthington
