A campfire glows against sandstone walls in the backcountry.

Primal Man

Utah

Mankind’s greatest discovery. That's how my friend Evan and I often refer to fire when gathered around its warm, inviting glow when roaming the wild places of the world. While a campfire in the backcountry has always been an almost holy experience for us, we gained a deeper appreciation for the spiritual power of fire on this night. Watching the light from the flames ignite the alcove we were camping in with the most beautiful shades of orange and red, while our shadows danced on the sandstone walls, it became perfectly clear to me that I had never before felt so connected to early man. I could visualize our caveman predecessors having a night just as we were, reveling in the glory and mystery of fire, with no words spoken, because none needed to be. My friend’s shadow towering over him on the cave wall seemed as if it was an ancient ancestor watching over us, having come back to the cave where it once was captivated by the very flames that we will always look into with awe and wonderment.

Gallery-Wrapped Canvas Print

The most economical print medium that I offer, Gallery-Wrapped Canvas prints are sleek, lightweight, and easy to handle and hang.
Canvas is wrapped around solid wood stretcher bars to ensure that the print does not warp or bow over time, and a ‘mirror wrap’ is utilized by which the edges of the image get reflected or ‘mirrored’ over the sides of the canvas to avoid losing details near the edges.
These prints are less reflective than metal or acrylic prints, making them an optimal choice for bright rooms with large windows.

Prints come with a 1.5" premium black wood inset frame system installed on the back of the print which makes the print appear to elegantly float off the wall.
