Take 'Em Boys! Finished...16"x 24" oil Bluebill waterfowling



















This is a painting of my long childhood friend, Mike
whom I spent a good many days hunting ruffed grouse,
shooting skeet...but most memorable, hunting the Big
Bay of Green Bay. We called ourselves the "Bay Men!"

This depicts bluebills on the peripherals winging in,
and Mike is mindful of those bluebills he has
opted to pass up, (note his eye glancing up), but
is committing to what no doubt promises a better '
outcome before him among his decoy spread!
