Scott Patton Art First Snow on the Plains Western Wildlife Bison Signed Print

Limited Edition Lithographic Art Print. "First Snow on the Plains". #62 of an edition limited to only 390 prints.

Signed and numbered by the artist. Forging against an icy blast, the huge American bison bull responds to the first snow of the season by heading toward new feeding grounds. Look closely at the scene and you will discover a prairie slope comprised of buffalograss, yucca, western wheatgrass, blue grama, Indian ricegrass, and curlycup gumweed. Look out across the expanse and you will find a vast herd of thousands of bison moving with a single purpose. This is a time before fenceposts and freeways, when the bison moved as freely as the wind.

This is a time when packs of buffalo wolves followed the great herds, and they too are here to be discovered by your searching eye.
