Pronghorn Hangout by Susan Drey  Image: “This piece was inspired by the beautiful sites I see during my travels through the Black Hills and the Badlands. The pronghorn antelope are one of my favorite animals of South Dakota. I love studying their social behavior, and they fascinate me with their speed and beautifully structured bodies with their unique white markings. With each piece I search for the essence, the innate structure, and the central character of my subjects: street scenes, native birds, and wildlife, and people ... an energetic and expressive style that perfectly reflects my background in architecture, my love of nature, and my great lust for life.”
