"Cowperate Ladder"



Some good folks wanted a painting based on the photo shown. 
They said they went out to check on the herd one day and this is what they found. 
Pretty funny to think the cow was wandering around with a ladder stuck on it's head. 
Acrylic on canvas, 20 X 30.

  2. Amazing - the cow is standing there, looking so calm. Love your bright, fun take on the reference pic, and I love the title!

    1. Thank you Kathryn. The photo presented a challenge for sure and the temptation to paint it as is, always strong. I am pleased with the outcome. :)

  4. Hi again, Ross,
    Thank you for your delightful [and encouraging] comments. Commercial Drive is fascinating - trendy and growing. And Gastown has the coolest alleyways - seems to have inspired both of us. The watercolor classes have been a joy, and I think all the students are having a great time learning, too. The drawing class needs work on my part. I'm finding it very difficult to explain something that comes naturally to me. But I think I will spend some time, drawing, and stopping every once in a while to analyze what [and why] I am doing.
    Thank you again, Ross!
