I've been picture framing for the past 21 years. There certainly has been a steep drop off in the interest in wildlife art. Its not just because of the two recessions either. The present generation hasn't grown up with the exposure to hunting/fishing and there is a commensurate drop in wildlife art as well.
I rememember a RMEF banquet in the early 90's that I framed 71 prints. Now, you are lucky to have 15 framed.
Federal Duck Stamps and their prints are almost worthless in my area. You can hardly get your initial outlay back in resale.
It may cycle back but not in the foreseeable future I'm afraid.
