Friday afternoon, I went back to Haley Farm into the pasture where I had started this 11x14 oil on panel the previous week. However, this time the cows were present though out of sight. After I got started a big cow discovered me, and came to within a couple feet. The cow had horns and was snorting and drooling and covered with flies down its snout but its eyes only revealed curiosity. I could easily imagine my puny easel pushed to the ground. But the cow decided I wasn't so interesting after all and left to munch grass nearby. I went into the pasture to begin with because of this view of the partially hidden house with the stone foundations of another long gone structure.
