The Tired Mallard

This gentle watercolour sketch portrays a mallard at rest, its head slightly bowed as it pauses on a grassy riverbank. Soft greens and blues evoke the freshness of the waterside, while delicate brushwork captures the bird’s warm brown plumage and the iridescent flash of blue on its wing. A peaceful, intimate moment in nature, perfect for bird lovers and admirers of tranquil wildlife scenes.
