Sandy Jamieson Print
The
Alaska Trappers Association is the fortunate benefactor of support
from one of Alaska's most well-known wildlife artists. Sandy Jamieson
is a man who wears more than one hat. He is a trapper, bush pilot and
big game hunting guide. In these pursuits, he lives a lifestyle envied
by many outdoorsmen.
In addition, Sandy is an accomplished wildlife artist. He has a unique
view of the relationship between humans and animals. His art typically
incorporates a special twist which requires some thoughtful
contemplation by the viewer. Learn more about Sandy's lifestyle and
art on his web page www.sandyjamieson.com.
Mr. Jamieson generously donated an original painting to the Alaska
Trappers Association for auction at our annual banquet. This unique
painting depicts a foot-hold trap with red jaws in the shape of a
heart. A red rose rests on the pan. The painting is entitled
"Jaws of Love Life." The piece conveys different messages to
different viewers. However, it obviously represents the relationship
between men, women and trapping.
The original painting was a very popular item during the oral auction
at the 2001 ATA banquet. The pace of bidding was fast and furious. The
winning bid was nearly double the price which Sandy had established
prior to the auction. Obviously, trappers know great art when they see
it!
Mr. Jamieson has now graciously agreed to collaborate with ATA on the
sale of limited edition prints of "Jaws of Love Life." ATA
is confident that the prints will be just as popular with trappers
(and their significant others) around the world as the original was
here in Alaska. This print will enhance the décor of any home.
It would be an ideal Christmas gift for your family or for a friend.
Prints are available and can be ordered for $35.00 (plus
shipping and handling) from ATA.
