This was the first painting with the idea of a packer coming across the bones of a big bull. Bob Martin is my model here, as well as in the second "A Packer's View" (click HERE to go see).

"HOODED MERGANSER"
Just a simple little painting of one of my favorite little ducks - a male Hooded Merganser.

"ON THE RIM"
Only after I finished this painting was I informed that it would be unlikely for a Bald Eagle to ever challenge a Golden. Anyway, I thought it made a nice picture.
