This painting was originally going to be a demonstration with just the "location" being painted. In the end, I kept my future son-in-law in the painting along with all the duck decoys that had been placed out. He was done hunting at this point and was headed back in to retrieve his decoys. Again, like the previous blog mentions, I like the close value that requires you to look for the decoys :) Hope 2024 is a good year for all! Happy New Year!
