That is a really interesting piece. I think mom would have loved it, she was always making weird things with items she would find ..... then she got old and I couldn't find most of it.

This is a nice piece of art. I also do not like those items often. Ducks can be voracious, if you continue to give them seeds, they continue to eat.

That is a very creative piece, I could tell it was a snail by one look, My kittens are growing so fast they seem to be hungry all the time and don;t understand when I tell them they cannot eat all the time, lol

@DaddyEvil You could well be right - or perhaps we'll just agree to disagree.

(Actually, don't tell anyone but I think you're probably right. But what else could you do with such bits? These people never throw anything out! lol

I love art like the one you show. I wrote a short story about a man who took garden items- shovels and rakes etc.- and made creatures with them.

It was obvious to me but that's okay.

The head is to the left with its horns then the round bit is the shell and there is a tail out to the right.

That surely is some art: folk or not! Qwacka Duck seems to enjoy your company, or may be the kind of food that you provide!

What kind of a book is the Liane Moriarty one? Is it a fiction?

I think it is the food that Qwacka likes. The Liane Moriarty one is fiction and about triplets. I guess you'd call it chick lit but it does deal with some sensitive issues.
