Ducks on the Millpond Painting

Ducks on the Millpond is part of Paula McHugh’s series of paintings inspired by the titles of American and Celtic fiddle tunes and folk songs. This painting depicts two ducks fly over the millpond as the leaves turn their autumn colors of orange and yellow. The miller was America’s first industrial inventor. He was builder, banker, businessman and host to the countryside. When highways were no wider than today’s bridle paths, the first good roads were built to the mills. Where there was a mill site, there was a nucleus for a town. Alan Lomax documented this verse from the musical tune titled Ducks on the Millpond: Ducks in the millpond, Geese in the clover, Fell in the millpond, Wet all over.
