Along with the elaborate task of compiling promo pieces, I have completed a new commission. Briefs don't get any better than 'Please draw a Highland Cow'. And I shall, with pleasure! Isn't it fitting for the season? It is the bovine embodiment of Autumn for me :)
Oh, and it's a noteworthy day on my Countdown Calendar, with exactly two months until I am reunited with Monsieur Pickle (he isn't French) for Christmas. Since those two weeks are sure to fly by once they finally arrive, I don't want to build up to it too much. Oh well, today I'll allow myself just a small helping of excitement. I realise I am only person on the planet already looking forward to Christmas. But I've got to go against public opinion this year. December being is eagerly awaited in this little corner of England!
WONDERFUL job, Louise! I love them too--someone near here raises them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific drawing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great bovine!! Nice expression on his face and beautiful use of color. I have yet to make the leap into color so I definitely appreciate this!
ReplyDeleteYou captured all the sweetness of the breed! One of my favorites at the local zoo here in Kansas.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Love the motion in it, and the fur is great! :)
ReplyDeleteYou've created a very beautiful, delightful cow. Love the flowing hair and colors!
ReplyDeleteI love cows too, but I've never had the pleasure of meeting one like this. But your lovely painting made me smile! nancy
ReplyDeletep.s., I can't wait for Christmas, either. Our grandbaby will be visiting (they live 10 hours away), and I'm very excited. Today I did some Christmas shopping!
OH, I LOVE him! I just put some curly 'oreo' cows on my blog, and was thinking how the hair was similar to this kind of cow. They look cuddly! You did a great job.
ReplyDeleteShaggy and adorable!! Sort of the bovine version of an Old English Sheepdog!! Very endearing!
ReplyDeleteHoly Cow!
