Yes, it's a happy, happy yellow duck, happily paddling along on a blue pond, with a background of happy green vegetation! It started out as a bit of a joke, with firstborn son Alex saying that I should paint things like ducks, that would be more popular than the very abstract symbol paintings, and a lot less disturbing at that. "Right," I said somewhere between grimly insulted and slightly amused. "You shall have your duck ..." I made the outline for the painting, and then the canvas with the outline simply vanished from the face of the Earth. How can you lose a canvas? I don't know. But it re-appeared some ten months later just as magically, and it happened to be April 1st. How appropriate ... So I finished the duck that very day, glazed it the next and actually, I really like it. It's cute and amusing. In fact, I have a certain level of resistance for Alex to come and take it away. But I'm consoling myself with this web page and that in spirit, the duck will sail on :-)
