It Takes 39 Steps
Dear Jedheads,
As a buck who lives close to the land, I’m accustomed to being still and observing the scene. Is that the distant rattling of a rattlesnake? Is the screeching of that red-tailed hawk hovering above meant as a warning to us ground-dwellers? This kind of astute observation is necessary for the survival of us wild animals, but it is not a characteristic I generally see in humans.
This is why I’m particularly excited about this month’s show.

Thank you for a successful launch!
Dear Readers,
Edith, Jolly and I are very pleased with the encouraging response we received following the launch of dearantler.com. Thank you for making it a success!
We had numerous inquiries about purchasing our artwork. The work you see in the gallery this month is licensed on Society6, where it’s available as framed or unframed prints on high-quality paper, or on merchandise (adult and children’s t-shirts, sweatshirt hoodies, baby onesies, smartphone and tablet cases and skins, tote bags, notecards and pillows). We were happy to hear from our art patrons that they were impressed by the workmanship quality of Society6 products.
Read MoreDear Antler, What is “giclée” printing?
Dear Jed,
Thank you for sharing your website and advice. I am captivated by your blog, and your swanky outfit….as well as the art showing in the gallery. I love your site and think it's perfect. There was just one word I didn't understand. On your FAQs, you mention giclée printing. Does the term giclée originate from the Cervidae (deer) family or elsewhere?
Sincerely,
Lucky Dog

The theme of this month's show is travel to Nauwmabcwoc (pronounced Nah-wahm-ah-bac-wohk). Never heard of it? It's a massive land area that spans much of the Western U.S. and Canada, and includes Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, Alberta, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon and California. My friends Edith and Jolly recently took a month-long camping road trip through this area, documenting it through photos, sketches, words and watercolors.

And so it begins
Dear Antler,
Who are you? And what's this blog idea all about?
Sincerely,
Ernest Walter Chipmunk
PS: My friends say that there's a bag of walnuts waiting for me across the road. They've double-dog dared me to run blindfolded, dodge cars and cross the street to get it. Are there really walnuts on the other side of the road?
