Black and white duck silhouette and vector art designs in PNG, CDR file.

I created this collection of four original mallard duck silhouette and vector art designs to capture different moments in the life of these familiar waterbirds. Two illustrations show ducks in flight, while the others explore quieter scenes among lakeside reeds. Each design has its own character, from the movement of raised wings to the peaceful atmosphere of a duck resting near the water. All four artworks are available as free downloads.

I wanted these duck illustrations to be useful for more than one type of project. The black and white silhouettes can become printable duck stencils, decorative wall art, or graphics for nature-inspired designs. I’ve also shared the collection in several file formats for digital artwork, printing, woodcraft, laser and metal cutting, and 3D modeling, so you can choose the version that best suits your project.
