Bessie is a whimsical little watercolor painted to celebrate the birthday of a man who had enjoyed his life as a farmer but had also served his country in the military. It isn't my normal style...if I have one of those...but would make a lovely accent for a colorful child's bedroom.
My passion for art came naturally from both sides of my family tree. However, most of my early inspiration and training came from my father who was gifted in many media. I also acquired a keen interest in history, anthropology, archaeology, and nature from my father. For me, art is a way of exploring the wide and diverse world and expressing myself within it. As a result, I work with a variety of media in a diverse number of styles, often simultaneously. Unfortunately, my curiosity and diverse interests often means that many pieces of art get left incomplete...or that I end up finishing pieces years after I began them. It also means that I have a tendency to dabble in experimental methods, materials, or subjects...

Thank you so much, Viktor. This was created for a friend's elderly veteran/farmer father...who happened to particularly like cows. I had never attempted a cow before.
