Original Party Animal Oil Painting
Matilda the Cow keeps everyone's secrets. She settles into her favorite spot in the field, eyes soft, head tilting just so, and listens. By now, she carries hundreds. She has never spilled a single one. Perhaps that's why there's always a line. They come one by one, settle in beside her, and always leave a little lighter.
I painted Matilda the Cow with bold, gestural strokes that capture her thoughtful nature. The rich earth tones and creamy whites create a harmony that feels both grounded and elevated. Each brushstroke builds her character on canvas.
