Brute Force is a Giclée Reproduction by Ellen Jean Diederich featuring Bison in Medora, ND with grid design.
Behind the piece: Beautiful Medora haunted me and I wanted to capture the landscape without drawing it out so that the watercolor would rule. Unlike the Bison’s continuous wins, there wasn’t any success after three consecutive efforts.
In frustration, I laid my attempts side-by-side and my thoughts changed from ‘look at all the time and paper you wasted’ to ‘look at this beautiful paper’. I scrubbed out the middle and took my colored paper and Medora pictures to the lake. In the morning, I added a grid to one and started drawing Bison on it. This painting was an amazing success for me I didn’t see coming.
This Giclée Reproduction is also available as an all-occasion notecard set and is featured in the Bison Multipack of Notecards, see our cards category!
