In addition to his masterful historical works, John Clymer also painted wildlife and high country hunting scenes. In Sheep Hunters, the pack train of men, horses and mules works its way down the trail. Behind them are the jagged, snow-capped peaks, bighorn habitat. It’s been a good hunt. A trophy, full curl head, sheepskin, and meat, are strapped to the first mule. Ahead of them, the comforts of camp and the story await their arrival. There’ll be a good time around a good fire tonight.
