life,” he said. “I loved them very
much. And there’s the habitat and
conservation aspect of it, their plight.
I always wanted to do something to
help them. [He donates work for the
cause.] I never get tired of watching
nature. I’ve had the experience of
being with wild animals. I lived up
in the mountains at 5,000 feet in
California.”
While he doesn’t consider himself
a photographer, he works from
photographs he takes of his animal
kingdom subjects, among them bear
and big cats, golden eagles and birds,
raccoons and big horn sheep.
Now home on the range in the
Lone Star State, David plans to shift
his artistic focus a bit.
“In the future I’m going to get
into western art,” he said.
“Cowboys and Indians — that
sort of stuff?”
“Yeah. And steers and bison
… keep the theme on wildlife. I’m
hoping to get some reference to do
some roping and cutting horses and
things like that.”
Keep Calm and … er, Saddle Up,
Mr. Prescott. Saddle Up.
