Artwork Description
“As with many of my works, the background is kept to a minimum, placing the entire focus on the character of the chosen subject. A bull moose is North America’s largest ungulate with a mature bull weighing up to 1800 pounds. He is quite a formidable presence during the rut (September) when displaying and protecting his harem from intruders. Virtually afraid of nothing, they can move with lightning speed when charging, which I learned firsthand on several occasions. To emphasize the massive size, I arranged him so that the canvas appears to be unable to contain his huge antlers and body and as if he is peering through the window right at you!“ – John Banovich
