Here is a quote from Bateman describing Awesome Land. Fortunately, there are still vast tracts
of our planet where nature reigns.In this landscape, I was awed by the sense of endless lakes,
rivers and mountains and, beyond them, more lonely lakes, rivers and mountains.A man could
walk into this land for weeks and never see other human evidence. However, on second thought,
the land is not lonely and is far from empty.This is the home of countless creatures, from elk
or bear, raven or eagle, down to mouse or chickadee. Beneath the ice and snow are countless other
creatures from beaver to insect, all awaiting the bountiful surge of spring. In a sense, the subject
of this painting is not just a herd of bull elkand a couple of ravens, but the atmosphere,
geology, waterways, forests and the numerous unseen dwellers of this awesome land. - RB
