Geese



This is painted with gouache, a kind of opaque watercolor. The word gouache comes from the Italian word "guazzo", which means either splash, puddle or muddy pool, depending on your source. I'm voting for something connected with the concept of mud. Its really hard to use. This is a picture of three geese waiting for their dinner.
