"MOOSE & CALF" by Alicia Tredway

This is part of a series of paintings I did for a show about Alaska.  These huge rather strange looking but beautiful animals are plentiful and I always had to be mindful and aware while painting.  This was painted back in 2006 and I remember photographing the moose and her calf on the side of the road and then using the photograph in another setting that was more interesting.  The painting is oil on canvas 11 x 14 and has straight forward simple black strip framing.
