Camille SOLD

My facebook friends in the Pastel Society of America group helped me name this girl. Thank you, Joanne Turner! I love the name because it reminds me of Camille Claudel. She had an affair with Rodin and there is a movie named after her. A tragic story, or at least it seemed that way when I saw it many years ago. This Camille lives at Deep Run Farm  in Bucks County, PA.

Olive SOLD

This calf was only a few weeks old and had such an irresistible sweetness in her expression. Maybe that's why I love to paint these babies!

Zeke

This boy has such attitude! I was out at a preserved farm doing a not so good landscape painting and driving home when I saw a herd of mixed breed cattle a half mile from where I was painting. It's the unexpected bovine siting that may provide the best pose or look.
