Feeding the ducks – what could be more natural? Well, a pair of naturists feeding the ducks perhaps?

I’m not really sure what the thinking was behind this painting. I was toying with the idea of skinny dippers for a while, then thought it would be nice to use an older couple for the main characters. The mallards, coots, butterflies, frog etc… just sort of invited themselves in.

Other nature lovers will be pleased to note that the responsible humans are feeding the ducks mealworms and not bread. No wildlife (imaginary or otherwise) was harmed in the making of this picture!
