About this print
- Roadrunner with spiked crest and raised tail
- Brown, cream and black on warm desert yellow
- Clean mid-century lines and shapes
- Part of The Wild Ones minimalist animal series
The Runner is roadrunner art with mid-century charm. The bird stands alert on long legs, crest spiked, tail raised high behind it, beak pointed toward whatever is next. Its feathers are streaked in brown, cream, and black, drawn in clean, stylized shapes.
The background is a soft, sunbaked yellow, the color of a desert afternoon. It is playful without being cartoonish, a nod to the desert's quickest and most curious resident.
It brightens a kitchen, a breakfast nook, or a kid's room, and sits well above a cream armchair in a living room. A natural pick for anyone who grew up in Arizona or New Mexico. Part of The Wild Ones collection. Choose a matte print, or have it framed by hand in Phoenix in black, white, walnut, or natural wood, with or without a white mat.

Questions about The Runner
What bird is The Runner?
A greater roadrunner, the fast desert bird of the Southwest, drawn with its spiked crest and long raised tail.
Is it a good fit for a nursery or kid's room?
Yes. The soft yellow and friendly shapes suit a child's room, and a 12x18 or 16x20 is an easy size for that wall.
Good to know
What is the difference between Print and Framed Print?
Print ships as the artwork alone on heavyweight matte stock. Framed Print arrives in your choice of black, white, walnut, or natural wood frames, ready to hang.
How long until my order ships?
Every Frontier Prints piece is made to order. Prints ship in 3 to 5 business days, framed pieces in 5 to 7.
Will the colors match my screen?
Screens differ, so expect slight shifts in color. Wood grain on walnut frames is unique to each piece.
Do framed prints have glass?
No. Framed pieces have an acrylic or styrene front, never glass. It is lighter than glass and much less likely to shatter, so it is safer to ship and to hang.
Are prints signed or numbered?
No. Prints are open edition and are not signed or numbered.
