Henry the Highland Cow Original Oil

Henry the Highland Cow is the latest addition to my highland cow series.

When painting animals, it's difficult to not form some sort of connection with the piece. That's something I love about painting portraits: getting to step back from the easel and see the accumulation of dozens of hours, thousands of brush strokes and many tubes of paint embodied; a real creature , a soul on the canvas.

This artwork was created with oil paint on a quality stretched cotton canvas measuring 20" h x 30" w x 1.5" d.

Signed on the front, edges painting, wired and ready to hang.

Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

Hi, I'm Brittany

I'm an oil painter from the Gold Coast, Queensland.

While my work is grounded in realism, I aim to capture an atmospheric quality, using light, colour nuance, and dappled brushwork to shift the ordinary into something subtly enchanting.

My wish is to create art that evokes a sense of escapism and inspires viewers to become lost in the soul-stirring beauty of nature.
