Taurus Buffalo - August 2020

Taurus Buffalo - 24”x 36” Acrylic Painting on Canvas. August 2020

The most difficult painting I’ve done to date, partly due to the fact that I was trying to depict how dangerous the African Buffalo is, but the colors chosen, the texture and the stance painted took time to get close to what was on my mind.

To make matters more interesting, it was during this painting that I got stung by a Yellow Jacket Bee - I guess the bee knew how dangerous the animal in the painting was and gave its life by punishing me :)

Anyway, the painting came out well and now hangs in the basement of my house.

What else is cool about the African Buffalo?
