Longhorns, Scottsbluff, Nebraska

Longhorns, Scottsbluff, Nebraska -18H x 24W inches soft pastels on 90 lb watercolor paper.
This is a compilation of scenery by the monument area and cows on a farm that were closer to town. On this hot summer day, the longhorn were bothered by the flies. I sat by the road and watched them for quite a while because the way they sport those horns is fascinating, and the horns-size on the bull seem kind of impossible. Another newborn calf, a white one, was nearby in the long grass.
Post-dated note: Accepted in the J. Mane Gallery’s Fins, Feathers and Fur 2020 exhibition.
