Jack Mesick primarily worked in pencil, because he loved the detail and the shading that the simple black and white medium allowed him to portray. Jack also issued limited edition prints of his drawings. A full time professional artist, Jack received considerable acclaim for his realistic wildlife drawings and intricate local barn and landscape scenes. He was perhaps best known for his “hidden” deer and turkey art work and Jack enjoyed challenging the viewer to find all of the naturally camouflaged wildlife, as well as the artfully placed man-made intrusions depicted in his pictures.   More info about the artist below*

The CMC thanks Kenco Outfitters, Morgan Outdoors  and Edie Mesick for their contributions to our raffle.

*Additional information about the artist: Jack Mesick’s art work was published in a number of magazines, including New York’s Conservationist (his photographs and drawings were published many times throughout the 1990’s), and the New York Sportsman.
