Comment from Sange
Beautiful work on this Black- Bellied Whistling Duck Cleo.
They are one of my favorite ducks to observe and photograph.
I like the way you highlighted the sun's light on both the duck and the water.
Nicely done

Comment from Shadow catcher
A beautiful image of a beautiful duck, I like the lighting and the strong shadow on it's back. The water's color contrasts and compliments the duck's plumage,and the ripples add a sense of movement. A very impressive piece!

This is such a lovely and tranquil scene, and I especially like the way you have used the light and shadows. You have also managed to bring out such a fine shine and ripples in the water, and I like the colors you have used.
The duck is painted paying a very good attention to details. Your brush work is excellent, and the same is your use of high lights.
The format and framing is perfect, and with the placement of the bird off to the left it is a fine balance in the composition. This is a truly lovely and well done digital painting Cleo.

Beautiful digital art painting, Cleo, showing this tranquil duck swimming along in the calm water, surrounded by reflections of sky and trees. I love how you've shown the sun lighting up the head, beak and back of the duck. You can almost see the water moving. Lovely composition. Great use of colour, light and shade. Suzanne

A very nice painting that captures the appearance of this Southern duck very well. I like the pose and the light on his face that casts such a nice shadow on his back.

This is so realistic I thought it was one of Sange's photos. Its beautifully rendered. I absolutely love the way you have sunkissed the beak and shadowed the neck... the colours too are vibrant and so eyecatching in the water. Its a brilliant piece of art.

Comment from ReginaL
This is a very intricate piece. I think it was a good call to keep the water so simplistic so the audience's attention is immediately drawn to the duck.
Everything is well proportioned and I love the little spots of cool tones you added to the water making it very appealing. Great job!
