Endangered Mexican Grey Wolf


 Oil on Cradled Board  8x10     SOLD

This painting is from a photo I took of a Mexican Gray Wolf. I have known this wolf for several years. He lives in a zoological park where he is part of a breeding program as these wolves are endangered in the wild. On this particular day there was a snow storm, and I was literally one of a handful of souls who braved the weather. I will never forget the feeling of being alone with these wolves. There wasn't another human anywhere near, and the only sound was the squeaking of my boots on the snow, and the flakes as they hit my hooded jacket.
