Custom Painted Moose Paddles
One of my favorite things to paint on is a moose paddle! Every antler is different, and I love getting to turn them into something personal for someone to hang in their home, cabin, or hunting lodge.
These are all original, hand-painted pieces, made to order right here in Alaska. You get to choose your paddle, the landscape, and the wildlife youâd like painted on it. Whether itâs a favorite hunting memory, a place you love, or just a scene youâve always wanted, Iâm happy to work with your ideas!
IMPORTANT: All prices shown in the photos include the moose paddle AND your custom painting! Youâre purchasing a finished piece of artwork, not just a blank antler. đ
Please read through the details below before ordering so you know exactly whatâs included and how everything works.
Pricing & Whatâs Included
The price of each paddle includes the antler itself, a painted landscape, and a certain number of subjects depending on the price range.
$1,000 range â 1 subject
Includes a landscape of your choice and one subject, such as a moose, caribou, bear, or other wildlife.
$2,000 range â 2 subjects
Includes a landscape and two subjects. This could be two animals, an animal and an airplane, or any combination youâd like.
$3,000+ range â 3 subjects
Includes a landscape and three subjects, such as multiple animals or a combination of wildlife and an airplane.
Want more than whatâs included? I can usually add extra animals, airplanes, or special details for an additional cost. Just send me a message before ordering so I can give you a quote.
I specialize in wildlife and landscapes, so I donât paint people or pets. đ
Choosing Your Paddle
Scroll through the listing photos to see the blank moose paddles currently available. Each paddle is labeled with a letter and a price. The price shown on each photo is for that paddle FULLY PAINTED, not the blank antler!
That price includes the actual moose paddle, a custom landscape of your choice, and the number of subjects included in that paddleâs price range.You arenât paying anything extra for the painting unless you request additional subjects or special details beyond whatâs included.
Once youâve found the paddle you like, simply select its matching letter from the options before adding it to your cart.
How to Order
Itâs pretty simple!
1. Pick your paddle. Choose the letter of the paddle youâd like from the listing photos.
2. Decide what youâd like painted. Keep the number of subjects within your paddleâs price range, or contact me first if youâd like something more detailed.
3. Leave me a note at checkout. Tell me what landscape and wildlife youâd like, along with any special details you have in mind. Please also include your phone number so I can reach you with questions and send photos of your finished piece.
4. Let me know about shipping or pickup. In the same checkout notes, tell me whether youâd like your paddle shipped or if youâre planning to arrange local pickup or delivery in Alaska.
And thatâs it! If I have any questions about your ideas, Iâll reach out before getting started.
Shipping
Shipping is not included in the paddle price and will be billed separately.
Since these are large, oddly shaped antlers being shipped from Alaska, the cost varies quite a bit depending on the paddle and where itâs going.
Most paddles cost approximately $100â$400 to ship, although Iâve rarely had one cost more than $300.
I calculate shipping separately because Shopify doesnât always give accurate rates for something this size and shape. Iâd rather charge you the actual shipping cost than guess and potentially overcharge you.
Shipping to Canada is also available, but customs fees or duties may apply.
If youâd like a shipping estimate before ordering, feel free to email me at info@meganstortzart.com.
How Long Does It Take?
Please allow approximately one month for your paddle to be completed.Smaller, simpler paintings may be finished sooner, while larger or more detailed pieces can take a little longer. I work on commissions in the order theyâre paid for, and I currently have two paddles in progress.
Everything is painted by hand, and I like to give each piece the time it needs. If youâre ordering for a birthday, anniversary, Christmas, or another special occasion, please check with me before purchasing so I can make sure your timeline works.

Iâve spent years working as a hunting guide here in Alaska, and wildlife has always been a huge part of my life. Getting to paint the animals and places I know so well is something I genuinely enjoy, especially when the finished piece has a personal meaning to the person ordering it.
Thanks for supporting my artwork! â¤ď¸
