Quiet Rest, 12 x 12Down a country road in the little town of Hye, Texas, I found these cows resting in the shade. Of course, as soon as I started painting they got up and ambled off into the pasture! Not the best model behavior - luckily I had some sketches to fall back on!
Laurel, I want to be where you are .. or is it just your powers of observation? Just stunning. r
ReplyDeleteTexas is beautiful, but I think it's her powers of observation! I love this, Laurel--it's amazing to me how much can be conveyed by just a few strokes. the cows are a perfect example of that.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the to previous comments!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
Wow Laurel,
ReplyDeleteYou are so good. This is just beautiful, and I love the subtle abstract surety of the cows. They
are perfectly painted. A sheer delight on every level.
XOXOXOBarbara
Reminds me of the middle of a golden summer! Love the colors.
ReplyDeleteThe confidence and spontaneous use of color and minimal brush strokes just amaze me. Makes me want to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI noticed this was 12 x 12. I have to judge a 12 x 12 show for the MId Michigan Art Guild this weekend.
In the future, I might suggest that they visit your blog.
I'm sure they would be excited and amazed.
