pezheadval 32 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 We love the work of the artist David E. Doss. About two year ago, we met him at The Festival of the Masters and were chatting with him about how we liked the picture he made of the Polynesian and said he should make one for Fort Wilderness. He asked if we thought it would be successful and asked what he could do. My mom suggested an old fashioned camper by the beach would be a cool idea. We've been hoping that he would actually do it and it looks like he finally did! Pretty cool!!! From his facebook page: We are counting the days until our next Event at Art of Disney/Downtown Disney. We are so excited to be releasing David’s Newest Mouseterpiece “Fun at Ft. Wilderness”.This image depicts your classic retro camping experience. If you have ever camped at the Fort you can relate, if you haven’t you should! It’s the best memories a family can make! Hope you can make plans to stop in and see us Oct 7th-Oct 23rd. We look forward to being back in The Sunshine State! It’s a great time to be back at Disney with so many great events like Food & Wine,& Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. Hope to see ya real soon! https://www.facebook.com/pages/David-E-Doss-Artist/287198306717 Nicki aka Rebelstand 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brent... Just Brent 83 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 That's pretty awesome. Looks like I'll miss his show by a week. I wonder if they'll start selling it at Art of Disney all the time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LORNADUCK 261 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I love this saw it on FB yesterday. I hope I can get one. Guess I will have to make a special trip. Thanks for giving him the idea Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I just discovered the artist lives within 10 miles of me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Cool story PHV- Your mom should get a share of the profits. It shows the view from my favorite spot at the Fort. Does this artist sell his work on-line anywhere? It would seem odd for him not to. I would imagine that this print is available in different sizes, right? Any idea what one costs?

Helmsey......Todd 134 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I need one of these...bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 They sell quite a bit of his art at the shop on Main St in MK (name is escaping me). We bought 2 of his prints a while back. I think they're 8 x 10 and IIRC cost around $20 each. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We bought 2 of his prints a while back. I think they're 8 x 10 and IIRC cost around $20 each. I found the artist's website, which appears a bit out of date: http://www.davidedoss.com/ He sells some of his art there, but it looks like the Disney Resort pieces are only available on Disney property. He calls the art store on Main Street "The Art of Disney." $20 for an 8 x 10 print is much less than I thought it would be. This guy seems to have a good thing going with Disney. Good for him.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 $20 for an 8 x 10 print is much less than I thought it would be. Don't hold me to that. It was a couple of years ago and my memory is terrible. But I know it wasn't somewhere in the neighborhood. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MicknMin...Holly 54 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 David always seems to be at WDW when we are. We have a few of his prints in our house. Looks like I'm going to have to get this one too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brent... Just Brent 83 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 I looked on Main Street and at Epcot and they didn't have the new print yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
