Furry Coo

Furry Coo, Oil on Board 8" x 10"

Oil on Board 8" x 10". Highland cattle seem to be the order of the day recently on the lower fells of Ribblesdale. A small herd inhabit the fells above Stainforth and their shaggy exteriors provide great subject matter, and as well as these another herd of Belties (Belted Galloways) have made their presence felt in the field across from these chaps. The steely-grey sky is typical of these dales, and its a feature I think I should replicate more in my paintings; having just picked the kids up, as I was driving home I noticed this very same coloured sky and the thought hit me to paint more of this.
