Sharon, If I'm not mistaken that is your awesome raccoon artwork for the FTA VTA 2024 ad in The Fur Taker. May I say beautiful job as always. Do you sell your artwork anywhere locally? [Linked Image]

I also love this work! Feel a bit like devils advocate watching that little guy chow down on some eggs! He’s really cute! Hungry fella!
Love watching animals eat.

Sharron is purdy handy in that department.
I'm always glad to see her work used on a cover or to bill a big event. Couldn't happen to a better gal.

Dave, yes sir, that’s my egg marauder for their logo. Nice people to work with, always.

I have a website (below in the signature), and what isn’t in that, folks often see something in a magazine or state trapper’s yearly rondy’s logos, and contact me for a print. I often donate the originals to their auctions . Next month, I will be enjoying the Fling of Alaska Trappers rondy, and donating an original wolverine to their auction.

Thank you, Dave , for your appreciation of the FTA and their support of each state’s trapping association’s hard work. And many thanks, E82 and Randall. Shucks, Hoss… wink


I’m just happy to be part of the cello string section in this great orchestra of trappers .

Sharon is a very talented artist and always love to see her work. She captures everything and looks so real with all the detail.

Many thanks, snowy, and Scott. Without the research, photos for references from trappers like here , artists wouldn't be able to get much right at all. I'm just happy to be a part of the team.

… one of my prized possessions… Miss Sharon picked one of my cats as a model years ago and sent me the print

.. I’d say she nailed it

Savell, what a perfect frame , mat and wall you have that on. Ties everything together.

That cat was featured on the cover for Blackie's Blend catalog. He loved it. Had the lettering font around the image.

Texas cats sure are gorgeous, and yours was a pleasure to draw. I think sometimes they must be Ocelot hybrids !

A prime example of how trappers supply me with amazing photos of their catches , to study behavior and anatomy as references. Without you guys this would be impossible.

Well see there ? You have the whole history right there.

Blackie was so fun to work with.

You Texas gentlemen keep on those cats, yotes and be safe. Be armed to the teeth. And don't take no mess from hoodlums nor heathens .
