Frank Hnat Wildbird Artist, Hickory

Native Pennsylvanians are familiar with the lush wildlife that populates the state's forests and fields. These fowl and deer also star in Frank Hnat's artwork. With pen and ink, Frank renders these pastoral moments in vibrant color, capturing chubby goldfinches perched in a berry bough and owls contrasted against the cloudburst of a night sky. Frank offers these pieces as matte prints and collects them in yearly calendars, which allows enthusiasts to bring nature into their homes without subletting a room to a family of badgers.
