This watercolor painting of a pintail duck decoy was created by Marilyn Smith.
My fascination for the beauty of decoys goes back a long time.
I used to purchase the bare wooden carvings and then paint them,
resembling various species of ducks, such as the pintail, wood ducks,
redheads, mallards and others. Most of them became gifts to family
and friends. Later, my interest changed to painting watercolors of the decoys in a variety of settings. This pintail is resting on the work bench of its' owner after
a day of hunting. The anchor and the rope are just draped over and nearby, waiting for another day of hunting. The old shed is very weathered and the window, though rather dirty and full of spider webs, still glistens in the sun.
**************
Duck decoys originated in the early days of America and were used by the American Indians to lure waterfowl in for hunting purposes for their food
supply. The Indians made the earliest decoys from stuffed skins...
