YNP as She’s Known to Her Friends

Posted on June 13, 2010 by Tania

We just got back from an utterly fantastic whirlwind trip. Kevin (hereafter known as “Kevin the Amazing”) took me on a road trip south to Yellowstone National Park, north to Calgary, west into the Rockies, north to Jasper via the Icefield Highway, east over to Hinton, and then south again down to Regina. Between two cameras (my faithful Panasonic Lumix FZ20 and Kevin’s shiny new Canon Powershot SX20) we took over 600 photos. I’m positively itching with delight at the thought of all the scratchboards that exist in those photos!

Here’s one example of a photo that is destined to become a scratchboard in the near future:

About Tania

I'm an artist, specifically a wildlife artist. And how exactly does one know she is an artist, specifically a wildlife artist? Well, only artists get excited about new art supplies, "Mmm, unmarked claybord..." or discovering a new satin sheen spray varnish *sigh* And only a wildlife artist gets distracted during a very serious conversation with her exceptionally supportive spouse by a fledgling sparrow taking it's first shaky flight across the yard.
