"As this strong young bull pursues an old bull and his harem, their battle cries hang in the cool air for miles; sooner or later, the old bull will have to face this challenger, for better or worse."

 drachemetzger and I got invited (through her connections) to participate in the Invitational Art Sled Exhibition in Vail, Colorado. She's done it twice now, as well as another one in Iowa. This was my first one.

It was fun. It's the largest scale acrylic painting I've ever done, and the most extensive piece (being that there's a background, multiple characters, and at least an attempt at lighting.) I will say I'm quite pleased with the trees and the antlers, they were by far the biggest challenge.
