I saw a little sign about Bison, somewhere in my travels, that made me smile.I love it, and just had to include it on the back of my cards of this painting

Advice from a Bison:

  • Be steadfast
  • Be kind
  • Be fearless
  • Rest when a day’s work is done
  • Don’t forget to smell the flowers

It is 16" x 20", and is framed in a dark walnut floater frame, edged with gold. Giclee prints on 2" gallery wrapped canvases  are available upon request, in a variety of sizes, as well as paper prints (unframed), and quality flame-able art card prints. (Pricing chart is available in "Fine Art Prints")]]> This stylized Bison, painted in oils, is grazing in a field of wild flowers, giving the viewer a peaceful and happy feeling. When I posted it on my Social Media, I asked, “What do you like most about this  bison?” I got a flood of amazing answers–but a few stuck with me. “His eye!” “He looks so friendly!”  Others commented on the little birdie sitting on his back–reminding them that we, like that lone bison in the field, are  never truly alone. I painted this portrait in summer hues; highlighting the crystal blue Colorado sky, so common in our Summer months, with distant view of the mountains behind. I’d love to know, What do you like most about this lone bison? 

Here’s a copy of my charcoal drawing of this bison–and my inspiration for this painting.
