The work of illustrator Will Lytle aka Thorneater Comics is inspired by the people, plants and animals that call the Catskills home. Lytle portrayed the Atlantic Sturgeon, a native Hudson River fish that can grow to 15 feet and weigh more than 800 pounds, because, despite its size, it is greatly threatened by overfishing and pollution. Late Keegan Ales owner Tommy Keegan agreed that the mural and location are the perfect match: “a local water animal on a local watering hole!” Lytle said.
