Gerald, a fine look at this common drake Mallard. Two comments: it could use a little more room on the left and the head is a little soft. The latter could probably be cured with some more selective sharpening. You are definitely making progress.

This guy gave you a nice head turn Gerald. Love the water color too. Maybe another round of sharpening, but it's not bad. Good work!
