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!
