Farm Days

I spent the last few months taking part in an art class that was very different from anything I have ever taken. The prof encouraged stealing of others works and then modifying them to make something of your own. I will admit that I rather enjoyed altering photos and making them completely different.

Dali Lama
That said, I don't think that I am going to continue making this type of art.

I will stick to painting. In particular, I was working on a piece for a cousin's wedding. Since my cousin and new husband live in the country and have cows, I was inspired to paint a farm inspired piece but with a twist. I chose the subject of a cow. I wanted a realistic head and then I wanted to turn the head into a balloon.


When seeing the painting for the first time, the new husband asked my cousin if the rope was supposed to be vertebrae. That was funny for me.
