Information about the Harlequin Ducks:

The Harlequin Duck is a smaller, ocean going species of waterfowl. They are also called painted ducks, totem pole ducks, rock ducks and mountain ducks. It is also called the “Sea Mouse” due to the very odd, mouse-like squeaks it can emit. These birds are native to the northern coastal areas of North America, on both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. The birds feed by what is called “dabbling” – this mean the animal feeds mostly along the surface of the water, or by tipping head-first into the water to graze on aquatic plants and vegetation. While, overall, the Harlequin Duck’s populations are stable, those on the Pacific side of North America are declining and are considered endangered. This decline is likely to habitat loss, oil spills and the building of several hydroelectric plants.

The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
• Paper thickness: 10.3 mil
• Paper weight: 5.6 oz/y² (192 g/m²)

Artist’s notes:

The Harlequin Ducks were completed on 3.30.2012. I was inspired to draw this species of waterfowl after seeing an excellent reference photos by the talented wildlife photographer Brett Klaproth. I enjoy drawing ducks, mostly due to the fact that there is such a large difference between the males and females. This is the fifth duck species I’ve drawn, and currently I don’t have any plans to add more to the image library. But if you have a suggestion please feel free to send me an email.
