ABOUT OUR COVER
Tattered Rails, Sunlit Tails by Jerry Gadamus
The inspiration for this artwork came on a winter morning hike in Central Wisconsin. While pausing to admire the remnants of an old split rail fence, a grouse flushed into the morning sun. These two elements were a perfect combination for a painting! For more information on this or any other works by Jerry Gadamus, Scott Zoellick or Done Kloetzke, contact Thunder Mountain Press at 800-452-7574.
