Foster was also a very accomplished artist beyond his illustrations for magazines. He loved trains and painted very realistic renditions of famous locomotives of the day. Examples of his artistic skills and realism one needs look no further than the illustrations in New England Grouse Shooting which were all done by Foster... however, you would be missing out on most of his best work if that were as far as you looked. Dogs were another favorite subject of his art. I could go on and on . . .
