Wow I’ve been following that painting on instagram, the man does some great artwork.

I saw that the other day and thought those looked like Jim's decoys... chalked it up to coincidence. Very cool.

That was my first thought, Hank, he captured the overall lines of Jim's decoys quite well.

 

[John Klingenstein]

Outstanding.....

 

[Vince Pagliaroli]

A fitting tribute to a man that spent his life doing what he loved and enjoyed.

That’s quite the decoy spread, very nice work!
