New colourful Highland Cows and Melbourne Festival at the weekend

Introducing New Multi-coloured Cow Paintings

Two big and bright New Multi-coloured Cow Paintings., I’ll be taking at least one piece to Melbourne Festival at the weekend.

I will be hosted by Pierre Hourlier Wines, at Melbourne Hall. I hope you will come and say hello if you are passing. There is a lovely cafe next door.

There will be 150 artists exhibiting at the art trail, it takes all weekend to visit the whole village. Artists are taking up temporary residence in homes and businesses throughout the Derbyshire villagevillage

This time its a goat looking on!

My newly available colourful wildflower cow piece ‘Glenclova’ who is surrounded by colours I could actually eat, they are so delicious. And a little goat poking out his tongue behind her back.

A super-colourful cow in progress

As you know I am compelled to paint cows, and I have two currently in various stages, waiting for layers to dry. I have an English Longhorn cow on one canvas, and this Scottish Highland cow on the other. Both are very bright in rainbow colours, the way I love to paint. Both 76 x 102 cm canvases will be available when finished.

Rainbow Clouds of Comfort

I have always been crazy about seeing rainbow colours all together, ever since discovering the glass prisms at school age 7. Later in a succession of new schools, I’d spend way too much time staring through my clear plastic ruler to watch the rainbows appear. Dont we find strange things to take comfort from?

I have managed to include much of the rainbow in this new cow portrait and I love it.

All that remains is to find her a name.

Beginning work on a new painting commission - Highland Cow in bright rainbow colours

Each Highland Cow portrait is a one-of-a-kind, unique oil painting. This little video shows the beginning stage of a new painting, which has been commissioned recently. Im going to film the whole process on this one and give the client the video along with the piece.
