Story happening here

So many things popped up in my head while viewing this image. 

I found this one while browing the internet, and wow. Look at the amount of work and effort put into it!! When I first saw it, I was surprised by the amount of outlining there are in black. Also, I just realised that there are curvy lines around the duck! I'm guessing it's capturing the flow of water when the ducks swim about. I also enjoyed viewing various tones used for the water and land. I'm guessing through such, that they used water colour paints. The effects are awesome!! Have any of you painted using water colour before? It's truely amazing to use with great effects produced.

I can also see lots of texture on the artwork through the fur of the dog on the bottom right hand corner, and the roof of the building up the top. 

There's just so many images on there with different kinds of detail, displaying the artist's ideas and
Interpretation. 

I wonder what the artist was capturing at that time.
Did this artwork come from imagination?
Did this idea come from a book viewed previously? 
Did someone give you ideas for your painting?

It can be challenging (not always!) to tell what children were inspired by, but the artwork produced have endless possibilities and room for interpretation. Great stuff!! :)
