My interest in the American bison grew through time spent in Colorado and Utah, as well as countless scenic drives across Texas. There is an undeniable, wild majesty to them that feels both ancient and alive. In this painting, crisp edges are paired with areas of restrained abstraction to echo the buffalo’s untamed spirit. A lasting symbol of the Great Plains, the bison’s survival from near extinction carries deep significance, and this work aims to foster respect and awareness for their enduring place in North American history.
