The Spanglish Eclectic Cow

A few weeks ago I had the delight of creating a super eclectic mixed media painting. The nicest woman requested this painting for her little girl who has a fondness for cows and kitties. This was such a fun change of pace for me from the more neutral, minimalistic art styles that are popular right now. It's always so refreshing to be challenged as an artist. Plus, I just adore bright colors. A cow + kitty + paper mache + bright colors + mixed media goodness... Here's the end result!
And I was thrilled when the client sent me a picture of her daughter with the painting. Isn't this the cutest thing you've ever seen? The little one even had the idea to add one of her hair bows to the cow. ADORABLE!!

Ever since, I've been really inspired to experiment with more textures and colors... Interested to see what I'll come up with. Hands down, this has been the best commission ever. :)
