Bovine Beauty

Bovine Beauty
Oil on 11" x 14" canvas
I painted this beauty over the weekend. I had alot of fun painting this fellow. He is one of Jerry Miller's bulls down in the hill country. The paint was applied with a wide brush, and then I got out the palette knife and put buttery layers of paint on him. It is hard to tell how long it will take to dry. I had to work off of a photograph that I took about a month ago. I hope to start a still life today. Can't wait to get to the studio! Have an artful day, and thanks for looking at this blog! You can contact me if you are interested in purchasing this piece of art. He will look handsome framed up.

  1. Shouldn't his title be Handsome Husbandry - since he is a bull. Just teasing! He is marvelous! I really like the thick layered look and the way you used broad brush strokes to capture his coloring and markings. Good job.

  2. I need to find out his name. I think I will need to ask Jerry what his name is and if he has a story.
