"Mirabelle"


Okay, time for one more cow. I just cannot resist these guys. I have many more on the go but will put them aside and try something else for a bit. Perhaps more villages. Have not done any of those for a long, long time and love them equally. Thanks for visiting. 
This is watercolour on 300lb. Arches CP paper. 12.5" X 18.5"

  3. No apologies needed Ross, your cows are great. I have been a bit apologetic too recently because I am producing a lot of sheep creations! still I think it is best to paint what inspiration says as your painting shows your passion for your subject

    1. i appreciate the comments so much Polly. Cows appeal to me because they have such character which i try to portray. They also remind me of my Boxers. They have similar faces..... :) :)
