Bigfoot 2 is a lithograph produced by Bay Area artist Roy De Forest, who is known for his folk landscapes including nature and animals rendered in vibrant colors, textures, and patterns. Here, De Forest places Bigfoot at the center of the image, caring for a pair of wild dogs. The red moon sheds light on the forest but also suggests danger. De Forest’s whimsical style evokes a dreamlike atmosphere while also provoking a sense of foreboding.
