To me the most fascinating part of the Yellowstone ecosystem has always been the abundance of processes and numerous cycles that seem to happen continuously. From the most obvious such as the life-cycle of say a #bison, to the more discreet such as the average of almost 5 earthquakes per day, this place has a lot happening. - This painting is a brief window into the cycle of life. The ways in which the Yellowstone ecosystem can demonstrate this cycle is nearly unlimited and seemingly restricted only by the limits of our imagination. I cherish places like these because in the most elegant way they show their raw truths, unfiltered and always at face value. This is why areas like #Yellowstone I believe are at the heart of what makes our world's most #wild places so special. 30x40 oil on #canvas board, "A Never-ending Cycle" - Read the full story on my website's drop page.
