This painting was in direct response to a photograph a friend had taken of a bison near the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and Badlands National Park, South Dakota. The moment he shared his photo and story I was imaging a large oil on canvas painting exhibiting it's powerful presence – the National Mammal of the United States.
This piece can be seen at the Ivy Tech Community College, Warsaw, IN. It is a visual reminder of the bison heritage and the State of Indiana. Numbering in excess of 6 million in the past, the bison migrated through Indiana creating what is now called the Buffalo Trace trail. The bison is also included on the Indiana State Seal as a symbol of westward expansion.
