Curious cows

It was a crisp Mother’s Day morning. The dew was still on the grass, and the sun had just begun to warm the meadow. I was outside, painting in the stillness, palette knife in hand. Then they appeared—slowly, quietly—a group of curious cows, wandering closer with each step. One came right up to me, her gaze fixed as if she wanted to see what I was painting.

That’s the moment captured in this piece: the soft morning light, the golden field, and the bold cow stepping forward, full of calm curiosity. Just after this encounter, my children showed up with a tray of breakfast. A perfect morning—peaceful, personal, and unforgettable.

Painted en plein air, this work was created directly on location, in the heart of nature, with expressive strokes and rich texture.

Looking for a one-of-a-kind painting with a story behind it?
“Curious Cows” is a celebration of nature, quiet connection, and life’s little joys.
