"Big Red" a Texas Longhorn in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

 update- SOLD!

A few changes made here and there, and "Big Red" is finished! I hope you enjoyed the last post where I showed the steps in creating "Big Red"!

This big guy actually lives down the road from our home, on the way to our local beach. He was timid when I went the first few times to get a few photo shots of him and his family and peers, but on the last trip his curiosity got the best of him and he had to come check me out- or check out my camera anyway. I talked to him in my sweetest Texan-southern-country voice ( the one I use for scared kitties and puppies). He seemed to be at ease until I would take a few steps closer, making him take a few steps back. I forgot the bucket of feed, but I really must try that next time. After all, there is a huge gate and fence between the two of us. We should both be safe! LOL! I am only 5"0" tall, so I don't think he has a thing to worry about.

Some new works going on in my studio- unfinished longhorn by Sandra R Cutrer

Here is the lay-in and a few layers of paint added to my newest work, a Texas Longhorn. Working in oils on a stretched canvas.

We have so many Texas longhorns around where we live, but who would have thought they would be so timid! They run when I get out of the car with my camera.

There are so many colors, so many markings, and no two come close to being alike. How can you not respect these beautiful -and huge- animals.

 

 I wouldn't dare climb across a fence or gate, as I am sure they aren't as gentle as they seem. Maybe next time I can grab a bucket of feed and see if I can entice one or two to come a little closer to my camera.

Tatanka, a Bison Portrait in oils by Sandra R Cutrer

Tatanka, means Bison in the Native American Indian language. 
This big guy seems to be standing his ground, maybe chasing away rival males from his harem. My husband, younger son, and I traveled to the Midwestern states a few years back. A bison similar to this one decided to run a little on the main road- in the state park traffic. Thankfully, everyone knew to stop driving until he made up his mind where he wanted to go!

Tatanka is painted on an 8" x 8" x 0.50" stretched canvas, with all sides painted in a dark hue- making it easy to hang him unframed, or placed in your favorite frame.Prices are listed on my photo listing- on this blog or please visit my website @ sandracutrer.com for more information.

I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makes me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8.

"Rosie Bell", a horned cow painting by Sandra R Cutrer

SOLD! "Rosie Bell" is a palette knife painting. I used thick oil paint on a 6" x 6" x 1.5" stretched-wrapped canvas (all sides will be painted a dark hue).

My mom and dad had a little over eight acres years ago, and tried their hand at raising cows. It was fun for awhile, feeding the calves large bottles of milk, and watching them grow. One of my mother's favorite cows was named Rosie. My mom liked Rosie, but Rosie liked to play rough, and "bump" mom, or anyone who came in the field. We knew she was only playing, but she was too big to play so rough, not knowing she far out-weighed any of us!

In memory of Rosie, Bell, Hondo, Billy Boy,Rusty, and all of those other over-grown calves who enjoyed play time.
