Displaying a rather fluffed up defensive pose to anyone that got within a close proximity to its offspring.

The black swans feathers were painted in white and grey gouache.

Swanning Around

The little cygnet is the centre piece of the two adult swans and a contrast to them in size and colour.

I tried to show the difference between the soft, fluffy down on the body to the matted pointy tips on the saturated neck. This was a result from numerous attempts at searching for weeds underwater while having the neck submerged.

Elegant Gliding

You may see the swan as a whole but your attention is soon focused on the red bill and intense eye. Then you follow the beautiful shape of its neck and body mimicking the number two.

Your attention is then drawn to the soft reflection and ripples in the water that flow into the next painting.
