Spring Pasture - painting a day

"Spring Pasture" oil on canvas panel, 5x7", SOLD.

The cows I mentioned in a previous post cooperated later in the day, and I quickly sketched them as they roamed around. The remarkable thing about this painting is how realistic the cows are when you stand about 8 feet back from the painting. I'm not sure how well the effect will translate on the computer. It really surprised me when I got the painting home and was able to look at it from more than a few feet away.

Gorgoeous! I love the sharp spring colors. It's so refreshing just to look at.
