I started this painting of a drake Harlequin Duck that I abandoned because it wasn’t coming together as I had hoped. I still like the ducks gesture, and maybe one day I’ll give it another go.

Surf Scoter Linoleum Cut / Print
in printmaking
The Surf Scoter is frequently seen “scooting” through the surf, and diving beneath breaking waves. It has a large oddly shaped bill. It’s appearance and habitat preference makes it one of my favorites to see along the coast.
