Description
While out in the pasture at my brother in laws farm, I came across a group of intriguing cattle specimens that appeared to be giving me the stare down. It was noted that the cow on the far right was ticked that I was there, beside her, and the cow facing me head on didn't appear to care. Whereas, the three on the left seemed curious and had a, "what's in it for me?," attitude.
I hope I have served them well by painting them on canvas as they are most likely in someone's freezer now.
A great day at the farm!

Excellent artwork! Animals are like people in that they do not always react in the same way.

I do love how cows can lock eyes with we humans. You've captured it perfectly here in this expertly painted artwork. like/f/vote
