Brockle-Face Calf

"Brockle-Face Calf" 6 x 6 Original Oil

Since moving to Montana many moons ago, I have often heard the term, "brockle-face" but never really knew how to spell it or even pronounce it properly. (I always thought it was brocko). I finally looked it up for this blog entry and now I know. I guess it is similar in a way to "freckle-face" for humans? Anyway, a brockle-face calf is the result of cross breeding Herefords (red cattle with white faces) with other breeds. Not that I am into breeding cattle, I just like the visually interesting results! Click here for more information.

Painted on gallery-wrap canvas, painted on all 4 sides, ready to display or frame as you wish.

There's Something about Cows

"Little Hereford" 6 x 6" Original Oil ©2012 Trish Stevenson

There's something about cows. I'm thinking it must be their mostly calm, tranquil nature. Even their eyes have a tranquil look to them. Not often do you see them bucking and snorting out in the pasture like the horses do. They just seem content most of the time. And with their deep red coats and white faces, Herefords are fun to paint. Click here to bid.
