Colourful Highland Cow Painting with Flowers!

A new Highland Cow painting on the easel this week

I love painting my Highland Cows in a folk art style, with the flowers and mosaic pieces. These paintings paint themselves and I have very little to do with it, we just go with the flow. I’m loving this girl with her jaunty hair and her jazzy background.

I have a collection of colourful Highlanc Cow prints on canvas available here - shipping worldwide!

New cow painting for sale

Beautiful new cow painting for sale - textured painting in glowing colours is now available.

My latest cow painting for sale is Talisker, in rich glowing shades of chocolate, gold and warm orangey-reds. I painted this big guy using thickly applied paint over thinner underlayers, creating a lot of texture and movement, The layered colours absolutely glow! This is one of the many beautiful things about oil painting, you can glaze on top on under layers and create dazzling effects. Because of the thickness of the paint, and the type of colour used, this piece is taking weeks to dry!

Update: this piece is now available from Creative Fine Art, Marlborough.

Of course, I named him Talisker because of his beautiful whisky colours!
