Curious Calf

Like most baby animals, calves are a curious bunch and cute, of course. I love the fresh white face on this one, a"brockle face". Once again, the shadowed area of the white invites one to explore the color possibilities. This is a 5 x 7" oil on linen panel. Sold 

Of all the cattle I have ever painted I would have to say that Herefords are a favorite of mine simply because of their coloring. The deep red-brown coats look great in sunlight and the creamy white markings present colorful opportunities, especially in the shadow areas. Because I do like to paint subjects in motion I also liked the fact that this particular cow was on the move and swishing her tail. Sold

Little Brown Jug

I really like this little brown jug for some reason - it's got personality and probably some interesting history. So I had fun painting it. It's a challenge to paint the lighter ceramic on the bottom, with its subtle shades, but lots of fun to add highlights to the deep brown on top. Click here to bid.
