AGNES

THREE STAGES OF PAINTING AGNES
This past winter I went to a local farm and took photographs of the Scottish Highlander cows.  This cow had just given birth to a calf that same day.  I loved the expression on her face and the fact that icicles had formed on her fur/hair.  It was a very cold day, possibly -20 degrees,  her calf was shivering in the corner and I wondered if it would survive. Later, I found out the calf has survived and feel her mom merits being part of my collection, mostly due to this story.
