It reminds me of a book entitled (I think) The Art of Mickey Mouse, a 
collection of portraits of the mouse as they would be rendered by famous 
artists.
I know a market for duck pictures like this would be small, but does anyone 
know if the ducks appear in much "mainstream" art? I know I have seen a 
Donald painting by a northern European artist on a CD cover. I know, that's 
REALLY vague, but I can't remember the artist or the country. Sweden, maybe? 
Could be, as I think the recording label was Bis, which I believe is a 
Swedish company.

Sorry--my memory is not what it was these days.  But perhaps this artist is 
well-known in Europe & maybe this type of artwork is more common there, too.

p.s. off-topic--you want a truly hilarious & surreal hillbilly show? Green 
Acres. More laughs per acre, guaranteed. Isn't that right, Mr. Haney?
