Elk Camp Arts

Elk Camp Arts: “The West with a Touch of Elegance." Elk Camp Arts is the home of western and wildlife artist, Randy McIntyre. Along with selling through Elk Camp Arts, Randy participates in fine art shows throughout the United States. Most of Randy's original Acrylic on Canvases are available in S&N Limited Edition Prints, Custom matted and framed prints and Greeting Cards. Randy LOVES doing Custom and commissioned paintings. Randy paints on a lot of natural "canvases" such as hide, horn, bone, rock, wood, etc. Because he does all of his own Matting and Framing of his S&N Limited Edition Prints, he has a lot of scrap mat board. In the early he put this scrap to use with what he calls his “Matted Mat Board Originals”. Randy developed his own style of painting on the single, double and triple matted mat boards, by bringing the painting out over the mattings, giving these paintings a 3-D effect. Along with all of this, Randy does a complete line of hand-painted, dishwasher-safe glass ware, coffee mugs, wine glasses, beer mugs, Pilsner glasses, shot glasses and more. Randy started his Painting Career at the age of 12, and is mostly self-taught. Randy became a Professional Artist in the early 70’s, after deciding he did not want to continue his Degree in Art Education. However, Randy has spent many years teaching art to young and old alike, through 4-H, Private Lessons, and lots of fun Group Lessons. Randy also hosts Painting Retreats where painters can paint with Randy in the “Wilds of Montana”. Randy paints completely Free Hand, no projectors, computers or other devices. North West Montana is his inspiration, and as you can see from his work, detail is very important. Randy spends many hours each week in the Mountains that surround his small Ranch just North West of Eureka, Montana, hiking and photographing subjects for his paintings. Unique rocks, trees, rotted stumps, and of course, the Animals of the area, suc
