Description
Title: Bruce K. Lawes (1962-), On the Move
Medium: oil on linen
Dimensions: 36 1/2 x 47
Frame dimensions: 47 5/8 x 57 1/2 x 2 1/4
Notes: “The bison once roamed across most of North America in numbers that reached into the tens of millions. This great abundance provided many benefits to the Native cultures for food, clothing, and symbolic reverence. The thunder that shook the ground must have been deafening and awe inspiring. My painting depicts a herd on the move in the cold of winter, where these magnificent animals can always make their presence known. I tried to capture their physical dominance in action, in a setting that is a typical daily challenge for them.” — Bruce K. Lawes
