Antler Man
Antler Man, oil on canvas, 17" x 30", Steven Rhude He's out of touch with today. The Ashley Book of Knots is his bible - a means of survival and metaphor for when the evenings linger on. The antlers were put up by his father. He volunteers for the local fire department and goes to the legion on Friday nights - when he can. He's built and re built several wharves, and buried a few of his mates. His last name could be Leblanc, or Dobson, or Murphy ... really doesn't matter now. The narrative is all that counts from here on in. Steven Rhude, Wolfville, NS
