Longhorn with Bluebells, by Carrie Jacobson


Longhorn with Bluebells, by Carrie Jacobson
Oil on canvas, 18x18

I love the painting above - but think I might like it even better
 at the point at which I took the photo you see below. 
I'm going to make another one like it, leaving the canvas black.
 Which do you prefer?

Family Picnic by Pamela Blaies

Family Picnic
11" x 14"
Oil on Canvas

On my roadtrip this weekend, I saw lots of cows. Every time I see cows, it makes me want to paint them. From my time around cows growing up, I know they aren't the cleverest animals. But something in their expressions always makes me wonder if they are thinking. This looks like a cow family enjoying a Sunday afternoon picnic. The bluebonnets make the scene ideallic.

Outstanding in their Field by Pamela Blaies

Two Cows in a Field of Wildflowers
11" x 14"
Oil on Canvas

These two cows are full of color and life. Usually cows have such a nonchalant attitude, but these have expressions that make them seem curious, though cautious. The perspective of this painting makes me think they are sizing me up and might walk right up to investigate at any moment.

Here's Looking at You, Kid, by Carrie Jacobson

Here's Looking at You, Kid
By Carrie Jacobson
Oil on deep-cradled canvas, 8x24, $250



I pulled over to the side of the road, in Indiana, I think, and looked up a small hill. Four cows, three of them in a line someone could have drawn with a ruler, stared back at me.

I stared. They stared. I stared. They stared. Finally, I took the photo and left.

Cows probably wonder what the hell we are looking at.

To see more of my work, visit jacobson-arts.com, or my blog, The Accidental Artist. If you're in New England, come see me at Paradise City in Northampton, Mass., Memorial Day weekend. I'll be in Booth 318, in the Morgan Building, near the sculpture garden.
