Tim Yanke – a Bison forever

Tim Yanke’s painting in the President’s Home at North Dakota State University.

Tim Yanke’s “Strength in the Herd” painting, donated in support of North Dakota State University’s annual Bison Bidders Bowl earlier this month, has found its home and now occupies a prominent spot in the president’s residence at the university. The generous donor who won the artwork in spirited bidding said he thought it looked like it belonged there.

We agree.

“You are definitely now part of the Bison family forever with your beautiful piece of work proudly displayed at the President’s Home on campus,” one of the program’s directors, Pam Perleberg, shared with Tim, who was the official artist for the event. She said the university president plans to commemorate the painting with a plaque describing the work. (Prior to the event, Tim shared details of the painting on video.)

Congratulations to the university on the success of the event and to Tim, not only for being a great painter, but for becoming part of the NDSU Bison family forever. (Go Herd!)
