Up In The Treetops White Deer Paws!

So from what I can tell from my seven minutes of research this week… The Snawfus is an American Lumberjack myth evolved from the old Native American legend of the White Stag. The Snawfus is a giant magical white deer, with antlers so large that vines, branches, flowers and moss grow amongst them. Rumored to bound from treetop to treetop with a monkey/squirrel-like ease and occasionally he appeared as a tall man with a deer’s head. And if that’s not enough, the “smoke” surrounding the Smokey Mountains is said to be the steaming breath of this legendary beast!

Something in the combo of earnest environmental poster and comical impossibly positioned hoof holding the pipe that i love… I also bet a Snawfus would have great weed.

The log tv is an excellent prop! Our large footed lumberjack friend is obviously one to appreciate beauty in all its forms… the real question… is there a Snawfus butt on the flipside of that wall?

Monkeys… nature’s karmic kamikazes. My guess is he pays down the line (hint hint)… Regardless, I am a huge fan of the Snawfus pus and the monkey butt.

Nothing like a northwoods style wood fired kitchen! The question that comes to my mind is does it still smell delicious once it’s gone all the way through a Snawfus?

Here’s mine for battle Snawfus! If you look close, I’m going after the famed triple points nest (bird sex, waving squirrel, owl) probably should have thrown some ferns in for good measure.

I knew there were gonna be some good ones this week! The only thing that keeps me from just savoring the joy is my concern that our carefree Snawfus is about to get a Brain Candy esque facefull of bird!

Yes! I love when they have that great fantasy art muscularity! Great level of hidden sh*t in the antlers, and he’s got a giant, possibly moss laden, axe! Who doesn’t love that?!
