Montana Brown Trout
Pen & Ink on Antique Map
Inspired by the Ledger Art, created by Native Americans, primarily from the 1860’s to the 1920’s, I combine antique atlas maps, the art of pen & ink drawing then using my version of stippling/pointillism into my own creative perspectives. The background for this drawing of a Brown Trout is on a map of Montana, which was published in 1890 by Mast, Crowell Kirkpatrick. It measures 11 X 14 inches and is framed with patinaed copper to a 16 X 20.
