Julie Gordon Biography
The Buffalo Bison
When I was returning from Calgary to Ontario, I was inspired by the presence of buffalo on the plains of Manitoba. The spirit of history moved me to draw and paint pictures of this large and strong animal that can be spotted miles away. Unfortunately, some of the settlers did not appreciate the buffalo and tried to replace them with cows. The buffalo that posed for me was living in Mountsberg. But the one at High Park who was good friends with the Musk Ox was very active.
