This original painting captures a Yellowstone bison in a moment of quiet stillness, inspired by a photograph taken in Yellowstone National Park. Built primarily with palette-knife texture, the layered acrylic surface emphasizes the animal’s weight, presence, and the subtle tension between strength and calm that defines the bison’s character.

Rooted in firsthand observation and artistic interpretation, this painting reflects the enduring resilience of wildlife in one of North America’s most iconic environments. It brings a grounded, contemplative energy to contemporary interiors, galleries, or collections centered on nature and the American West.
