Moo: Last Day of Summer (Sacra Vacca)

           Plein-Air Painting.  For the first time I painted a scene outdoors.  Well, not a scene, but a cow, or, rather, a combination of cows and a bull.  I went with Edwina and her Wednesday crew (and Liz from Fridays) to Dot's farm in Pembroke.  We had a wonderful day!  I decided to paint just a cow as it would be much easier than painting a whole scene in a couple of hours.  This was not really a stupendous idea, since the cows kept moving about; hence, a combination of cows and a bull.  I also have a few additional projects in the works, so I knew this was a one sitting painting.  In any case, I had such an amazing time, that I will definitely "plein-air paint" again.  I may even venture down to Dot's farm to paint another "scene".  I just wish I had taken my camera to take pictures of her turkey, Frank, her chickens, her donkey, Pedro, her frog/snake/turtle pond, and all her beautiful bovines!  Also, her husband's old Ford roadster and 1929 Woody would have made fabulous subjects.
           I looked online for a link to Dot's farm, but couldn't find one.  She resides at 58 West Elm Street in Pembroke.  Dot was an amazing hostess, and her daughter, Jenn, made us a delicious lunch and helped her mom immensely, too!!
