This one doesn't look like my best drawing, but sometimes, when I'm drawing, making it all look nice isn't what's important. Sometimes it isn't the details people like, but the simplicity of a few lines meeting to form a meaningful picture. For me, yes drawing can be done with thousands of techniques to make it look real, but when it all funnels down, The most important thing is conveying your feelings. Here, I don't show the entire picture. Although the duck is standing on a cliff looking on at the world below, I've only shown you his face and neck and another duck flying off into infinity. It was meant to give a feeling of peacefulness, adventure, and hope... Maybe even a slight loneliness or feeling of independence. Also, realize the shadow on the back of his neck, as if to say that it will be brighter going forwards than looking back. Good pictures leave you with questions and wonder. This one seems to ask, "Will the duck follow after his friend?" "What does he think as he looks off into the distance?"
