Nice weather for ducks, the old saying goes.

When it rains, there's an old saying in England, "it's nice weather for ducks."

So when it rained - a lot- recently, I painted a duck!

Here he is, dabbling in the local pond.

  2. What a nice painting. I work with a girl who loves the rain. She's always happy when the weather report calls for rain on her day off :)
