The story behind the artwork
Custom Buffalo Wildlife Art Commission – Big Joe
Big Joe is a custom 40 × 30 inch original oil painting created by Canadian artist Graham Watts as a private wildlife art commission.
The painting captures the strength, mass and character of the buffalo in a bold statement format. Developed specifically for the collector, Big Joe demonstrates how a favourite animal or meaningful wildlife subject can become a one-of-a-kind original painting.
This project is an example of Graham’s approach to wildlife art commissions, custom animal paintings and original Canadian artwork. Each commission can be developed around the collector’s preferred subject, reference images, dimensions, colour direction and the mood or personality they want the finished painting to express.
