American buffalo Series

"American buffalo", which was the first in a series of buffalo paintings. I made 5 more after that and they all have been sold. I wish I kept them all. "American Buffalo 4" was the last one sold. I was thinking of picking it up from the gallery but I was too late. Since then, I created "Herrera Collection", collection of my paintings I don't want to sell. So far, I have 34 paintings in Herrera Collection. https://fineartamerica.com/profiles/hailey-e-herrera?tab=artworkgalleries&artworkgalleryid=743635?affiliateId=A99243
