Ever wonder how painting ideas come to me? 

Ok. So last Monday on the 4th of July we are sitting in a park in Brighton, NY with my dear friend Kimm and her family watching the fireworks. Following each firework, a little puff of smoke remained and it would trail off to the left until there was a row of little puffs. You know how clouds often take on a familiar shapes? Well, one of those puffs, for a moment, looked just like a duck holding an umbrella. That’s that. Painting idea born. #inspirationiseverywhere

Does a duckling ever need an umbrella? Maybe he just wants one for a fashion statement?
