Artist's Comments

I've been rummaging through some old photos recently in search of refference for an ongoing project at school. Anyways, I came across a couple I thought I'd share with you.

This one is a photo of a well known raccoon in Killarney. He's been nicknamed Sneaks and he's a real mischief maker. He's known for making rounds through the campground at dinner time (you can supposedly set your watch by him). He's also known for his fearlessness. Apparently he once saw some campers unpacking their car. At that time one of them had just taken the cooler out and set it on the ground. While the camper was standing next to the cooler, Sneaks walked right up, opened the cooler, helped himself to the contents and then calmly walked off. I also once caught him trying to steal an apple off our picnic bench while we were right there eating dinner.

Taken: June, 2005
Location: George Lake Campground, Killarney Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada

Lol, how ironic. There was a raccoon caught in the building I work at just last week. They should have put "Based on a true story" at the beginning of "Over the Hedge."

Reminds me of the raccoon my mom keeps catching rummaging through her trash when she gets home from work...

Oh yeah deffinitely. When i saw Over the Hedge it made me so nostalgic! There's nothing like waking up at three in the morning to one of your housemates yelling, "There's a raccoon in the common room!" That and the turtle reminds me of the office pet we had at my last job. His name is Porky.
