Original Alligator Snapping Turtle Pen & Ink Drawing | Framed Wildlife Art by Gene Irvin (1934–2026) | 12×10" Ready to Hang

That jaw. That beak. That ancient, armored face — wide open and utterly unafraid. The Alligator Snapping Turtle (Macrochelys temminckii) is one of North America's most prehistoric-looking creatures, and Arizona wildlife artist Gene Irvin captured it in 1999 with pure pen and ink stippling: thousands of individually placed dots building up the rugged texture of shell, skin, and that unmistakable hooked beak.

This is not a print. This is the original, one-of-a-kind artwork — drawn entirely by hand, signed by the artist, and ready to hang.
