Geyser Basin and Bison





Geyser Basin and Bison  6" x 6" acrylic $550

A powerful and majestic bison is juxtaposed against the power and majesty of the volcanic Yellowstone National Park. I saw this scene in late June when the wildflowers were in bloom and the bison had shed their winter coats.

The Headwaters

 

The Headwaters  9" x 12"  acrylic  $1400

The Deschutes River starts out as a calm, peaceful flow out of Little Lava Lake. This late summer scene shows the subtlety in colors and variety of grasses near the water. This famous river starts out flowing south then turns north through Bend and Maupin then eventually meets the Columbia. However, this scene was so peaceful and beautiful when I was there that I had to paint it!
