Return from the Hunt captures a moment of quiet triumph and enduring spirit in the rugged backcountry. A lone figure, seen from behind, carries the impressive antlers of a harvested elk through a densely wooded forest, the weight of the load echoing the effort and respect that comes with the hunt. Painted in rich acrylic detail, this piece emphasizes texture, resilience, and solitude—hallmarks of the outdoor experience. Commissioned as a tribute to tradition and perseverance, this work stands as a deeply personal reflection on the connection between hunter and wilderness.
