"Don’t be afraid," says mama duck, "It will be alright, I promise." Initiations, rights of passage and first times. Too many to remember?They mostly took place long ago, right? Maybe it’s time for another… Just remember the excitement. That ‘yes I did it’ feeling. So, come on! Take a leap into the unknown and live to share the tale.
With its passionate palette of priceless pinks, rollicking reds and yippee yellow, foreboding yields to excitement as Mama Duck takes her duckling down to the very wet lake… "come on! You can do it," she says.
Footnote: Brian hated water! He swam like a wounded pufferfish and wouldn’t even drink the stuff unless it had first inhabited grape, preferably for a long, hot summer season.
Waddled over from The Little Wood Duck.
Also available as a 30x30 cm print made in-house and stamped by hand.
