Artist John Stortz didn’t know how much adopting a dog would affect his life when he arrived at the dog shelter two years ago. Yet after he found the perfect travel buddy named Wolfgang, the artist and his lovable pup both took to the road and have yet to return.
The two spend every moment together, hiking and photographing spectacular American landscapes. John and Wolfgang have traveled everywhere from Angeles National Forest to the ghost towns of Nevada. During this time, John made a point to expose his dog to every amazing landscape around, all while sharing Wolfgang’s splendor with his audience. The results are quite magical.
