Today's painting is based on a video I saw in pinterest.. had to take a screenshot from it of these very beautiful ducks swimming in water. What makes it great is the lovel reflection. Tried to paint it
Sketch
Light drawing of ducks and their reflection.
I started painting the background first this time making sure the area of ducks are left untouched. The white of paper is essential to kee as the ducks are white.
And once it was done starte painting the white ones first. Followed by the brown ones. And then the water had to be corrected for adding more dark for more depth
This was Sunders Waterford paper so it was a lot easier than my cotton paper to lift colours. And hence and the waves look lot better here.
Final
