DECOYS, DUCK DRAKE PINTAIL JOHN A KOUCHINSKY, Master Carver
PINTAIL DRAKE- - TOTALLY HAND-CARVED , by Master Decoy Carver, John A. Kouchinsky, avid duck hunter and carver of award winning traditional and hunting decoys. I try to create decoys that will become a treasure, not just something to fill an empty spot on someones mantle. This decoy is REALLY an ORIGINAL, a" ONE-OF-A-KIND", that no one else will ever have, as I cannot possibly carve each bird exactly alike, because my decoys are TOTALLY hand carved and detailed, no duplicating machines are EVER used, and I take NO shortcuts. I carve birds from just a simple gunning decoy to intricately detailed works of DECORATIVE ART. I have been carving award winning decoys for over 50 years now. I have been a participant in many U. NATIONAL DECOY SHOWS, winning many awards for PROFESSIONAL FIRST IN CLASS.
I have also been a participant in many EASTON WATERFOWL FESTIVALS , in Maryland (which most of you know is by invitation only), I was invited for ten years in a row. My works are in collections all around this country and internationally. I have been published in hunting and decoy books and magazines and even received a mention in the Wildfowler Decoy book by Richard Cowan and Richard LaFountaine. Every bird is made from my own patterns. Dimensions Beak to tail 21 inches x 7 high x 6 wide.
Decoy is hollow carved Tupelo wood , Jelutong wood head. Each decoy is sealed and hand painted with artist acrylics. Then sealed again with Matte finish and dull coat. USE THE ENLARGING TOOL TO SEE A LARGER PHOTO AND ALL THE DETAILING WORK ON THIS BIRD. I do not know of any carvers giving that guarantee do you?
