The Trading Post, 111 East Main, Sidney has added fine art to their always evolving and expanding inventory. Included in the offerings are 2 Bev Doolittle prints: “Guardian Spirits” and “Two Bears at the Blackfeet”, and 2 Thomas Kincaide prints. An original “Wings at Dawn” by R.J. Cummings also graces the art wall. There is a silk screen Native American painting by Woody Crumbo, done in 1968. Crumbo was a Native American from Oklahoma whose work portrayed his people. He worked for the Federal government during the 1930s as an Indian dancer, and paid his way through college with that. His silk screen is a beautiful, poignant portrait of a young warrior.
The Trading Post is proud to have two Wyland Lithographs for sale. “Endangered Manatee” is matted and framed, signed and numbered. “Orca Journey” is matted and framed. The Wyland name has become synonymous with the new generation of awareness about environmental conservation. He changed the way people think about our environment when he started painting life-size whales on the sides of buildings in the 1980s. The enormous extent of Wyland public artworks (it is estimated that his murals are viewed by more than a billion people every year), his award-winning art galleries, and community service have made him one of the most recognized and beloved artists in the nation. He is considered one of the most influential artists of the 21st century, with artwork in museums, corporate collections, and private homes in more than one hundred countries.
Plans include adding more artwork as it becomes available. Stop by The Trading Post and visit with Joanna and Jerry about their acquisitions.
