killing time

 Another one of those pure joy pieces.  I could look at this cow face all day long.  I painted him to procrastinate finishing a very large piece that I am not feeling.  This is painted on a 5 x 5" gallery wrap canvas.  Pretty sure this mug is the next 3 x 3' cow head I am doing.  It is very hard to keep the same character in a large piece but I am going to give it a try.sold

  5. I really like your cows. I live on a farm so I enjoy seeing their sweet, expressive faces and painting them. I usually paint on 16x20 canvas or larger, but maybe your posts will inspire me to try them small too.

  6. This is a very engaging cow painting. I also like to paint cows because of many happy childhood memories on a dairy farm. Those eyes, which you captured so well in this piece, are topped only by your ability to also capture their sometimes cavilier attitude.

  7. You could look at it all day because it has so much character. That cow has a lot to say and you captured it wonderfully.

  8. Raised in a city environment I have always been scared of cows, but this one actually looks so cute I bet I could pet him.
