Christmas Stroll
Contest Winning Poster
It was only right to pay homage to one of the many things that make Montana great. This, of course, being rodeos. Montana has been the dream of many cowboys in the past, and in recent years the popularity of rodeos has exploded in the greater Bozeman area. A vintage rodeo poster look, while also tying in some iconic Christmas flair creates a very fun visual. All things considered, the two elements blended nicely into a nice harmony of bold and eye-catching but also warm and cozy. Most importantly though, the idea of a cowboy Santa Clause riding a Rudolph the bucking reindeer is just so cool.

Creation

November 2023
Originally, the idea was less thematic for the holiday, featuring a fairly typical cowboy on the reindeer's back. However, after being selected as the winner of the contest, the Downtown Bozeman Organization mentioned the idea of the cowboy being Santa Claus. It seemed like the perfect way to round out the design, so with some quick edits to the illustration, Santa it became.
