Next in the Line

"Next in the Line""

This painting is 16" wide by 16" tall 48".

It is a classical style portrait of a baby bison.

I have wanted to paint this for several years, and now - here it is!

I painted it from reference photos taken several winters ago at St. Louis County's Lone Elk park.

In winter the bison herd is fed along the road through their large area in the park, and

I was fortunate to drive through when they were all very close to my car.

It was early spring and this little bison still wears his orange baby hair.

I think his (or her) little horns are really cute too.

The title references the important role each newborn bison plays in the

heritage and survival of this beautiful and iconic American animal.

This painting is now on exhibit at the

National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City
