Gleann Kite Bailey 16x20 oil Portrait SOLD

No daily painting today, just one of my regular portrait paintings for your viewing pleasure!

This lovely lady is Grand Champion Cow at the 2009 Eastern Nova Scotia Exhibition. Being a Red & White Holstein and a champion to boot makes her very special.

I have been painting portraits of Maritime and Canadian cattle for well over a decade and this is the first red & white Holstein that I have done. I must say it was a welcome change from the black and whites that have been a staple of my profession.

It was an added bonus as I used to work for the owner of this cow and I know I milked her mother and grandmother! It is a small small world!
