The Story: Seasons of the Stag

Wil was approached by friend Steve Schulman about a series of drawings he had long envisioned. Steve had approached other artists, but was never able to realize his vision. So Wil and Steve collaborated through a series of sketches, which eventually became the four paintings. The Stag is represented by a regal North American species whose antlers become tree branches, a surreal element that ties into Wil’s Climate Conversation series of tree drawings. In the original work, the stag itself is graphite, and seasonal accents are in watercolor. For the Winter print, the Stag is wreathed in holly, with icicles hanging from the branches. Over the next year, Wil will release a Stag print each season.

 

Seasons of the Stag released at The Sautee Inn

The first print, Winter Stag, will be unveiled at the December 3rd (10 AM to 3 PM) Christmas Tour at the Historic Sautee Inn in the northeast Georgia mountains near Helen, Ga. The Holiday Tour, the Sautee Inn and the artist are supporting Friends of the Public Library.

The Sautee Inn is a restored, historic bed and breakfast that features eight comfortable rooms adorned with antique furnishings alongside modern comforts. Guests enjoy a gourmet, country-style breakfast prepared by accomplished chefs daily and top off the evening with decadent desserts.

The Inn features Wil Bosbyshell’s drawings and paintings. Maura Bosbyshell’s custom textiles adorn several rooms and common areas.

Stag in all Four Seasons Drawings Finished

I finished up the four Stag drawings by completing the fall season. Each drawing and painting combines vivid color with high contrast black and gray pencil. The fall leaves create a lot of action and fill the page. I used many different types of leaves: oak, maple, cherry, etc. I added a chipmunk to the fun! 

The summer Stag is very vibrant in the use of greens. Also the wreath around the Stags neck is filled with daylilies. 

After finishing up all four drawings, I went back into this drawing, which was the 1st completed and added more icicles and holly berries

. 

Also, after completing the summer and fall drawings I went back into this one and added more buds and blooms to the daylily wreath. 

 

Seasons of the Stag Calendar about 90% complete

The calendar with the Stag in each of the four seasons is nearing completion. I am about 90% complete. I need some light fall colors in the black and white leaf areas. All are 24 x 18 inches, graphite and watercolor on paper. 

 This is lush, summer leaves and lillies.
