Trailside Museum and Zoo


For the past year I've been developing five designs for the Trailside Museum and Zoo in Bear Mt, New York. They are to be painted in oil (30" x 40"), scanned, and blown up to roughly 6', then mounted on a fence along the back entrance (facing the Bear Mt Bridge).



What a difference eight years makes! I made this poster for Trailside in 2000. They wanted the same design, except a different building. I'm a much better draftsman now, and drawn many bears since.

You said it, Chad!
What a sense of elegance and maturity has come over your work. Nice to have that longevity with a client.
