Skyy Trails and Kow Tails

this rework of the cowscape -- was particularly invigorating....

i had sold this painting last summer... but for whatever reason -- the client returned to me for a savannah landscape. being momentarily disappointed -- i put it away. but... months later -- i returned to it .. and saw new potential that had to be explored. i dropped in the graphic sky -- popping our the napa cows and forcing them to be closer.

leaving a simple horizonline helped anchor the painting to the rest of the color field.

i've had SO many people stop by the studio to see this one!
