"The Legend of the Croucher"

"The Legend of the Croucher" was my entry into the "Myths and Legends of the Adirondacks Vol. 2" art exhibition at the View Arts Center in Old Forge, NY. The legend is based on a true story as relayed to myself, and the artwork is based on direct interviews with the eyewitness. I will be revisiting these images to color them in the future. ©2017-2021 John Ashton Golden.
