    So I just found your channel and have been binge watching. I have to say this is some of the best wildlife art content I've ever seen. Well shot, edited and composed - not to mention the quality of your art work. I live near Vermejo Park in New Mexico and see the Bison, Elk and bear all the time yet have been rather intimidated to try to paint them. Your channel is inspiring and instructional. Please keep going with this content - it is head and shoulders above others I've seen.

    Your friend appears to be ranching wood bison rather than plains bison. Is that so? I guess you had to make some adjustments in your painting. Though the point was to catch the light on them, which you managed to do beautifully.
    I recognize those long winter drives through northern Alberta. Bleak meets beautiful!! Congratulations on such a beautiful painting. The blues reflected in his fur are gorgeous!

    Wow! Really awesome painting and video. Would love to hear more about how you settled on a photo reference and interpreted it. Really awesome work man! I painted a bison last year that i saw in a national park and it was truly a glorious animal and awe inspiring to see up close. Great work again and good luck!

    Hey i love your videos and your paintings, but one thing... could you possibly slow down those time lapses of the painting itself a bit?. I dont mind the backstory, but I and many other artists and art lovers mostly enjoy observing the painting process, however in your videos its only maybe 10-20% of the whole video. Thank you. I subscribed and am excited to see more

      Thank you for the feedback Acacia! I am in the process of creating longer more involved videos describing my process in real-time, paint mixing, drawing, panel prep etc.

      @@DesMcCaffrey I agree. The painting part is the best part. Also the music could be just a tad lower. Though I appreciate the effort you've put into all this. Thanks for sharing.

    Hey Des! Thank you so much for sharing your passion with us! I've been on the hunt for different buffalo paintings and I absolutely love yours! I'm currently painting landscapes and mountain scenes with oil and I would love to learn how to paint buffalo! Would you be willing to share the colors used in your painting? All the Love, All the Power!
