The mighty Buffalo live around me. I watch them as the seasons change. The Buffalo, still and posing, is also the center piece of the Wyoming flag: a symbol of the Wild West. I saw a solitary male in Yellowstone National Park rubbing its neck against a tree. It looked powerful, fierce, determined . To show its roughness and wildness I used rough material like sand paper, wasps nest, coconut tree bark, pieces of sisal cord.I printed pictures I had taken of birds against a spillway of rushing water at the dam on the Snake river, water and pebbles in the Gros Ventre river and inverted sky and water. A sky of water, a river of clouds, both elements that surround a Buffalo
