Another souvenir from our recent road trip to share with you today. As you can see from the picture we bought a magnet with a watercolor image of an elk. The artist who created the original image is Dean Crouser. We found this at The Center of the West gift shop in Cody, Wyoming. A nice memory for a great day spent exploring the museums there.
I knew of this artist before we bought the magnet. His shop on Etsy was one of the first I ever followed. His shop there is filled with wonderful and lovely scenes of winter, wildlife or florals. In scanning his shop I found a new to me work to favorite. You can see it below. I wish I was sitting there under the Christmas lights with them. What about you?
If you have other places you like to shop better than Etsy, I can help you out with links to other shopping options. First, I want to mention that I have found the art of Dean Crouser in one form or another at nearly all national park gift shops anywhere in the country. My sister bought a cup and saucer set decorated with a hummingbird by this artist as a gift for a friend in the Yellowstone National Park gift shop. So, if you are out and about on a great American summer vacation in our national parks keep your eyes open.
