What Cha’ Lookin’ At?

#117/365 Paintings

A cow’s dignity can’t be messed with. Of course she’s oblivious to how rumpus she is. Her attitude says “I’m happy with my bovine curves. I’m purposeful and pretty, all the bulls say so.” I like that about her.

Project notes: This is the first time I’ve cheated. This painting is actually an 8 foot tall finger painting created some time ago. I’ve wondered what I would do in this project if I got ill. In the past couple days since mountain biking, I’ve had a painful ear infection that gained momentum today. On antibiotics now, and feverish. I will have to make up for it later. I guess ear infections can’t be messed with either. But I will say that this girl was what planted the bug in me to do ‘lots’ of cow paintings. So I’m happy she got into the theme somehow.

    Love your paintings and wanted to tell you that, yes, I have an inner cow. Knew it the second I saw the “Inner Cow” painting a few posts back. And your description of this one is perfect.

    Hope you feel better soon.

      Darrelyn, welcome!
      I did see some stunning, mouth watering photos of your farm. OMG!!!! So beautiful. I think you might enjoy the “Houses & Horses” theme coming up late summer, early fall. I’m SO happy you are here. Welcome!
