Red Calves Farm Life 5x7 Oil Painting Animal Art

As it is for many, the week between Christmas and New Year's Eve is a time of reflection for me. In looking back over 2012, I realized how very little I painted through last year. I didn't even come close to my numbers of paintings completed in prior years. It really is time I get back to my routine of waking and painting early mornings before 8:00 am. I began again today. It is the only way.

I hear rumors that original postcard paintings are popular and don't always make it through the mail to their intended destination. Lesson to be learned--mail in an envelope, or frame and hang.

Another Cow Painting: Beefmaster Bull Calf

I find many of my painting references when I visit the farm. This Beefmaster (a breed) bull calf stopped inquisitively and stared straight at my camera lens to make a great reference photo. On this painting I used a limited palette of terra rose, cadmium red, cadmium yellow, ultramarine blue, and a little white for accents.

This is one of my daily paintings and one of the farm series.
