🦆 “Opening Morning” — Original Acrylic on Canvas (24x48)
This piece captures the heartbeat of Louisiana’s duck season — the stillness of dawn broken by the rush of wings and the echo of the first shot. “Opening Morning” is a tribute to every hunter who’s ever felt that chill in the air, the mud underfoot, and the quiet bond shared between friends and their loyal retriever.
Painted in deep earth tones and golden sunrise hues, the scene unfolds across the marsh — silhouettes of hunters aiming skyward, ducks taking flight, and spent shells scattered in the reeds. The reflection of the sky across the water adds a cinematic warmth, blending realism with emotion in a way that only Louisiana mornings can.
Every detail — from the dog’s focused stance to the ripples in the bayou — carries a story of patience, tradition, and respect for the land.
Perfect for sportsmen, collectors, or anyone who feels at home in the marsh. This 24x48 acrylic painting is ready to hang and bring a piece of Louisiana’s wild soul into your space.
