 Wildlife Artist – American West
Acrylic Painting | Wildlife & Western Contemporary Art

Inspired by the Wild Places of the American West

I create intimate wildlife paintings inspired by the quiet presence, resilience, and spirit of animals of the American West. My Northern Wild: Portraits of Strength and Survival series uses simplified natural settings—snow, prairie, and atmospheric landscapes—to focus on expression, stillness, and emotional presence.

Through original paintings and fine art prints, I invite viewers to pause, observe closely, and experience a deeper connection to the wildlife and landscapes of the American West.

Explore original wildlife paintings and fine art prints throughout the gallery.

 

Original wildlife paintings in acrylic and colored pencil drawings are available, with fine art prints offered for select works. You are invited to explore the Originals, Gallery, and Prints pages to view the full collection of Western wildlife art.
