This is another expressive cow painting that is salvaged from the recycle bin. As you watch the video you'll notice when I start the painting already has some color on it. That is the result of a painting gone bad but I rarely toss anything in the trash but rather save them for a later date. For some reason it's easier for me to start with a reject painting instead of a fresh white piece of paper that seems to be glaring at me. Maybe it's less intimidating and I don't feel the pressure of having to paint a great painting from nothing, or maybe I enjoy taking an inferior painting and making good of it. I guess an art therapist would know but for now it remains a mystery.
This painting is a combination of acrylic paint and crayon on archival watercolor paper. My inspiration for painting cows started when I was plein air painting last year and decided to stop one day at Indika Farms in Windsor, Virginia. After spending several hours sketching I became intrigued by the subject and have enjoyed painting them since that day.
Hope you enjoy the demonstration and look for more of these in the future.
