I think the Canadian goose has a regal bearing. When I do a painting of a new subject for me, I can spend a lot of time researching the subject. In this case, I’ve seen a lot of Canadian’s but I really hadn’t looked that closely. Fortunately, the digital camera allows one to take many photos, then discard those that are not helpful and no extra cost except that of my time. I must have taken 100 or more photos before I was able to put together this composition. I really found this pair a fascinating subject.
