Protesting

Judy and I roamed around Bastrop, Texas yesterday. The ducks and geese in the park think that anyone and everyone who shows up is there to feed them.

We didn’t have any food for them. They were not amused. This Muscovy Duck seems to be protesting our lack of foresight by blocking our exit. We had to shoo it away a couple of times before it let us leave.

Not until you feed me!

Art Muse

Here is Cat, my art muse, keeping an eye on me. Hard work it is, trying to get me to understand the application of more than three tones in a charcoal sketch.
