Oil, Canvas, 30 x 12. I love painting animals! This is my first elephant painting. Elephant skin has such diverse textures which was a challenge but fun to explore.
Oil, Canvas, 16 x 20. Tiger's are, without a doubt, one of the most majestic animals on this planet. They are, the largest, strongest and most vividly marked of the big cats and unfortunately one of the most endangered.

Oil, Canvas, 11 x 14. We saw these black faced rams while traveling through the highlands of Scotland. There was actually quite a few of these big rams all standing together looking at us. I was impressed by the big cur…

Oil, Canvas, 18 x 24. I was always amazed at how often, and casually the buffalo would cross the rivers in Yellowstone. It was, almost as if it wasn't there. You know that water has to be cold. They must like the coolne…
