Each of the Yellowstone series is a result of a trip I took to Yellowstone National Park to study and photograph the wildlife there. Each of the series is on a 24" x 24" masonite panel and begun with inscribed words into the first layer. The painting is then painted over the saying.
Yellowstone: Bear
"Deep in slumber, dreams unending, wise old bear, paitent, strong, send me dreams of transformation."
Yellowstone: Bison
"The great father of life who made us and gave us this land to live upon made the buffalo...to afford us sustenance."
Yellowstone: Horned Owls
"Forests and fields, sun and wind and sky, earth and water, all speak the language Peace, Solitude, Silence."
Yellowstone: Moose
"Only in the woods can I keep my fragile serenity, and miles to go before I sleep."
Yellowstone: Wolf
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and know that everything in life has a purpose."
