The
Dry Side of Winter, LIMITED EDITION CANVAS |
|
| As fall turns to winter in the mountains, the sense of impending snowstorms is in the air. After a summer of grazing, the mule deer feel the change and know it’s time for their annual migration from higher to lower elevations on the mountain range. Their coats have changed from the orange/yellow of summer to gray. “I live in a mule deer range and have them in my yard all the time,” says artist Rod Frederick on the subject of his latest fine art limited edition. “Although the bucks become scarce during hunting season, I chose to show a buck and doe in this scene.They’re fascinating to watch and I wanted to show the seasonal migration in this painting. The buck is in full glory, his antlers at full growth. He’ll shed his antlers in the late winter and they’ll start growing again the next spring, each year growing progressively larger.” | ||

Summer Salad, MASTERWORK CANVAS
EDITION |
|
|
“This is one of my favorite places to hike,” says artist Rod Frederick. “I really enjoy the sights and sounds found high in the timberlands during this time of the year.” Wildlife takes full advantage of the short mountain summers, when many different species are tossed together into the same habitat – much like a salad. As the days get longer and warmer, the snow disappears and everything springs to life.The Cascade Mountains provide a stunning background for the wild alpine flowers and butterflies as the singing of white crown sparrows fills the air.Through the art of Rod Frederick, you can bask in the delights of a fleeting mountain summer all year long. |

The Wake Up Call, MASTERWORK
CANVAS EDITION |
|
|
As famous for his
paintings as he is for his sense of humor and colorful shirts, artist Rod
Frederick paints a world that is full of wide vistas, soaring trees,
sky-scraping mountains, and that’s just the backdrop for his spectacular
wildlife.
It is early fall in The Wake Up Call, the low sun bathes the mountains in alpenglow as mist rises off the water. This western scene is as familiar to Rod Frederick as his backyard, and could be almost anywhere in the Rocky or Cascade mountain ranges. As a prelude to the approaching winter, the male elk (or bulls) gather female elk (or cows) on the way to the winter range. The number in each bull’s group is limited only by his ability to defend his mating territory. Hormones are flowing freely, as evidenced by the pair of fighting elks. “Sometimes I can get so caught up in the excitement of watching elk which are fifty feet away that I might not even see the Canadian geese five feet from me,” says Frederick |

Wind Riders |
|
| “Few people realize that eagles can soar at up to 200 miles-per-hour in their roller coaster flights,” says Rod Frederick. “One of my favorite places to climb and watch them is the mountains of Vedauwoo in Wyoming. Splendid flyers, golden eagles will spread their eight-foot wingspan and ride the northern thermals for hours on end. They are truly inspiring to watch.” | ||

EVENING MAJESTY, |
|
| Summer in the high meadows of the Tatoosh range is as striking as it is short. From snow melt to first snow, entire cycles of life will come into being, flourish, then cease to be. Three bull elk forage through this alpine wonderland of flowers, rufus hummingbirds and dragon flies, as they bulk up for winter’s certain onset. Yet as this day’s last light falls on the ridgetops behind, the snows are far off and the majesty of summer abounds. | ||
