Original Cow Landscape Painting in Oil 18 x 24 - 10% Benefits Animal Charities This is an original oil painting titled "Rural Happy Hour". It is painted on an 18 x 24 inch canvas and is framed in a black frame with a rubbed dark brown finish in some areas. Overall dimensions are approximately 22 x 30. From afar, the frame looks completely black. It also comes with a certificate of authenticity which has been signed and dated by me. This is a painting of cows that live near my house, set in a slightly modified rural scene. I have another painting of these cows in my kitchen. This painting started as an attempt at a basic landscape painting, but it wasn't complete without some animals in it, and I think they become the focal point - it's now a "cowscape". As with all of my work, 10% of the sales price is donated to animal rescue groups and charities. For this painting, the donation will go to Sanctuary One, where I am also a volunteer.

I am an oil painter, focused completely on animal paintings - pets and other animals. I paint from photographs (they must be yours/mine/or others without copyright issues) in a realistic style on bold backgrounds, and enjoy capturing the amusing and endearing expressions of the animal. I departed a 20-year corporate career in 2006 to spend time on volunteer activities and art. I am now the proud mom to four former shelter dogs (a side benefit to volunteering at the shelter) and paint from my home studio (a remodeled carriage house in my backyard) and at the Ashland Art Center on Main Street.
Ten percent of my sales are donated to local animal rescue groups and charities where I am a volunteer - Jackson County Animal Shelter, Sanctuary One, and Equamore Horse Sanctuary. I am also a member of HeARTs Speak, the Ashland Gallery Association and The Canine Art Guild.
