Picnic Pastimes

Picnic Pastimes captures a quiet moment of togetherness as a mother duck glides peacefully through the water with her ducklings close behind. Soft blues, warm creams, and gentle sage greens create a soothing palette, while floating lily pads and delicate white blooms add to the painting's tranquil, storybook feel. Casey Langteau's signature palette knife texture brings subtle movement to the water, giving the scene a sense of life and serenity.

This charming piece is especially meaningful in nurseries, children's rooms, and family spaces, serving as a gentle reminder of love, protection, and the beauty found in everyday moments. Its timeless color palette blends effortlessly with both classic and modern interiors.

Artist Statement: Seeing a duck may be a sign to lighten up and enjoy life more. Think, it's time to stop taking things so seriously! The duck can also represent new beginnings, new relationships, or a new phase in your life. In painting this nurturing family of ducks, I hope to inspire jovial innocence to your day!

Available as paper print, canvas print, and hand-embellished canvas print.

Paper Print - Printed on flat fine art paper using professional giclée printers. Includes a white border for easy framing and a printed signature on the bottom right. Sizes up to 16x20 ship flat; larger prints ship rolled in a tube.

Canvas Wrap - Printed on archival gloss canvas and stretched over a 1.5” wood frame with the image wrapped around the sides. Comes ready to hang with wire and a printed signature on the bottom right.

Artist Embellished Canvas - A canvas print enhanced by the artist with thick, textured acrylic brushstrokes for a one-of-a-kind finish. Hand-signed and available with optional personalization for an added fee.

Floating Canvas Frame - While canvas wraps don’t require a frame (since the artwork continues beautifully around the edges)  adding a wooden floating frame offers a refined, modern touch. The subtle gap between the canvas and frame creates a “floating” effect that elevates the piece. Each artwork arrives ready to hang with wire installed. Frame colors are artist-selected to best complement the artwork and may vary.
