Fall is when big game animals are in their prime and the colors of landscape are at their richest. For an artist such as Tucker Smith, who is a master at depicting wildlife and their habitat in wonderfully balanced and subtle compositions, it’s a season full of inspiration. And, it’s a time when an expedition to the back country of the Bridger-Teton National Forest is simply magic.
Smith’s Morning at Ditch Creek was a featured painting and collector favorite at “The Best of the Best” retrospective at Oklahoma’s Woolaroc Museum. This showing of the works of four painters and three sculptors presented the finest works from the premier artists in wildlife today.
