While in Maine, Ceci and I stayed in an aging (i.e., inexpensive) resort hotel which had a beautiful waterfront view. Another delight (for me, anyway — Ceci thought I was a bit nuts) was a cute little rubber ducky. I couldn’t resist positioning him here, there, and everywhere around the room for a series of silly photos. Later at home, I memorialized him again by painting him in gouache and on the iPad. Here are the paintings, followed by some photos:
I’m nuts!
love that fish pose!
Selected poses.
Funny! You remind me of the time when my son and his cousin would take pictures of themselves “owling,” which was perching in the crouch position in unexpected places.
That’s a ‘hoot’! My younger son Will used to crouch down on the floor and jump toward me like a big grasshopper (when I was at the computer focusing on work or something ‘serious’). Aaarrrgggghhhh! Too bad I never got a picture of him doing that — was too busy yapping at him.
