Howling Coyote
Giclee on Artist's Canvas by Frank Allnutt of photo courtesy of Bryan Harry, 1964, Yellowstone Nat'l. Park, with optional Beetle-Killed Pine Frame, similar to that above.
Canvases, in select sizes, are available flat, or stretched on wooden stretcher bars, with optional Hand-Crafted, Beetle-Killed Pine Frame similar to the one above. Frame adds approximately 6" to both height and width of stretched canvas. Flat canvas has a minimum 2" white border to facilitate stretching, and is shipped rolled in a mailing tube.
Frank Allnutt's giclees are individual digital enhancements of computer-scanned photos which are created to emulate fine paintings. We use eight Ultrachrome K3 pigmented ink colors with lightfast rating of 108 years. Images are printed in high-resolution on artist's canvas and museum-varnished to further help protect against ultraviolet rays and humidity, and to preserve the color values.
Legend of Coyote
The legendary figure of Coyote is widely known. His legends come from the Great Basin and Plains Native American Groups.
Coyote is almost always portrayed as male and has a wide variety of characteristics, many of them quite contradictory. He is both trickster and culture hero—often described as witty, clever, obscene, vulgar, and thieving. Coyote stories have typically been censored, classified usually ethically as humorous anecdotes, jokes, animal tales, folktales and legends involving a sacred and/or worldly 'trickster, transformer, and culture hero.
Coyote is sometimes accompanied by companions. Most often are Wolf, Wildcat, Porcupine, Fox, Rabbit and Badger. Coyote stories have often been explained as being confined to the pre-human mythical age, when animals lived and talked as people. Generally, these tales are regarded as moral lessons or advise. Neither children nor adults in general should behave as Coyote behaves in the stories.
