Well, I must say I never expected to post a blog with Lady Gaga in the title! Lady Gaga is of course the title of this stunning painting by the super-talented Toni Argreaves, I love it, I think I'm safe in saying it is the only cow painting I've ever seen where the cow is pouting - wonderful stuff!
Thank you Toni for sending us an update on the last blog we posted regarding your prints.

I just had to share this fabulous painting by Caroline Walker with you! I love it, it manages to be terribly modern as well as utterly charming, and I don't think the two very often can be reconciled. Caroline has a beautiful website with a whole collection of original paintings, prints and other products.

Nosey Cow by Toni Hargreaves

I think this amazingly detailed painting by Toni Hargreaves is a super example of a realist style painting that still has bucket loads of humour! I feel that quite often artists who paint photo-realistic paintings of cows don’t manage to do this. The crisp clean colours are a delight. I receive so much joy viewing a painting like this that is so very clever and skilfully painted – what a treasure!
A limited box canvas print of Nosey Cow by Toni Hargreaves can be purchased from Washington Green Fine Art for £275.00

Affordable Originals by Wayne Dowden

Whenever I see one of Wayne Dowden's cow paintings I smile, they are so full of character and charm! He captures the gorgeous expressions perfectly. Wayne Dowden is an artist who works and lives in Somerset England which brings to his painterly loose artworks an authentic West Country appeal. Wayne sells his work in galleries across the UK and also more recently on eBay. I highly recommend checking out his website at www.waynedowden.com

'Nosey Cow' by James Bartholomew

How wonderfully perfect is this gorgeous painting!!! I think this piece captures everything that is delightful about cow art. James Bartholomew is a master with watercolour and pastel, even if (I can hardly bring myself to say it) you were not a fan of cows you would still have to love this painting due to the breathtaking loose and painterly way that James has created it. B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. 
   Not surprisingly all of the stretched canvas prints have already sold out but you can still purchase the limited edition paper print @ www.jamesbartholomew.co.uk

Iconic Parodies by Caroline Shotton

I recall being totally captivated by Caroline Shotton's wonderful cow paintings when I first viewed them through an art gallery window in Bath. That must be, gosh, around ten years ago and it was a real jolting experience to see Caroline's bold, humorous cows in a posh art gallery in picturesque Bath. I remember that a street vender was selling cheap hand painted copies on his market stall opposite the gallery - cheeky toad! Here are some of Caroline Shotton's icon parodies, enjoy!



'Moona Lisa'

'The Moo'

'Marilyn Moonroe'

'Vincent Van Moo'

Affordable Originals by Robert Joyner

Robert Joyner is a fantastic artist from Virginia USA. His loose none-linear style is super sophisticated and very different from the majority of cow artists. The tag line for his great website is 'making fine art affordable' and he certainly does, you can buy Robert's work through Ebay, Etsy or Fine Art America and if your canny you can bag an original for a bargain price. We thoroughly recommend taking a look at Robert's Ebay shop.
