I am happy to announce that this artwork created in my studio was chosen as a Delta Waterfowl Foundation vendor package limited edition. Friday night at the Expo-Grand Duck Hunters Banquet in Des Moines, Iowa a framed and matted print was auctioned off.

Thanks so much to Delta Waterfowl Foundation, Scott Terning, Kyle Tribble and all others that got this over the finish line.
