DG HOUSE COMMENT:
During my 22 year career as a full time professional painter, I
can look to a handful of fellow wildlife artists who are working
at the highest level. Zach Babat was on the top of the list. When
I told people they needed to see his work I'd always say because
he's the real deal. However, I know they didn't need to hear it from
me. All you had to do is look at the work. Out in nature, there are
various stories going on all around you all the time. Zach knew
how to capture these moments in one piece and marry them
together into one big story. He was the master of this because of
the years he was immersed in the wild lands of the West. He was
my colleague, my art compadre and a talent rarely seen.
place many people get to see and experience. Zach wanted to share
his experiences through his paintings.
FOR THOSE OF US WHO DIDN'T KNOW ZACH, WHAT CAN WE LEARN
ABOUT HIM BY VIEWING HIS ART?
Zach was no ordinary artist or person. His artworks shows his
sense of humor, love for the animals, and passion for life. He was
a person with truly a unique view which comes through in his
paintings.
