Collection: Animal Track Designs
How Jill Came Up with Animal Tracks
Jill Mahan's journey into creating Animal Track images was deeply rooted in her love for the woods and nature. Born and raised in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire, Jill found solace and connection in the natural surroundings of her home. Her boyfriend Dick, a passionate hunter, played a significant role in shaping her understanding of the outdoors.
In order to spend time with Dick during the fall hunting season, Jill ventured into the woods with him. It was during these excursions that she started to notice and appreciate the intricate stories told by animal tracks on the ground. Each set of tracks revealed a narrative of where the animals had been and where they were headed. Inspired by this, Jill conceived her first Animal Track image, a Christmas wreath that beautifully captured the essence of the wilderness.
Dick, being an avid hunter, shared his knowledge with Jill, teaching her how to identify various animal tracks and understand the behavior of wild animals. This knowledge became the foundation for Jill's artistic creations, as she skillfully translated her observations into captivating designs. The time spent in the woods with Dick not only enriched her artistic pursuits but also provided a space for contemplation and relaxation.
Tragically, Dick passed away from cancer in 2016, leaving behind a profound impact on Jill's life. To honor his memory, Jill dedicated her Animal Track designs to him, creating a lasting tribute to the man who had shared his passion and wisdom with her. The woods, once a place of shared experiences and learning, became even more significant to Jill as a source of solace and reflection.
Through her art and the lessons learned from Dick, Jill discovered the therapeutic and grounding qualities of the natural world. The process of watching and tracking animals in their habitat became a metaphor for life, offering valuable insights and lessons. Jill Mahan's Animal Track images not only showcase her artistic talent but also serve as a reminder of the profound connection between humans and the untamed beauty of the wilderness.
