Art // How Now Brown Cow

So this is going to sound a little crazy. Blame it on my midwestern roots or coming from a family of farmers, but I am sort of into the idea of cow art lately.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Before you write me off completely, know that there are some totally legit options out there. I mean, if Sharon Montrose is doing it, it's gotta be cool....






one // two // three // four // five // six

I'm specifically taken with that first one. Could be really beautiful in the right space, right??
Or have I officially lost it?

    I'm obsessed with animal prints - cows and horses specifically, which is odd b/c I don't really care for either in real life. I wanted to do a giant cow in the dining room but that grossed my husband out.

    I love that first one too, although they are all great. I have an oil painting of a mom and baby cow in my boys' room.....so no you haven't lost it! :)

    ha, when I finished my master's I was going to treat myself to this awesome cow painting on Etsy...until it got vehemently vetoed by my man. Looking at these I just may have to override his veto... ;)

    I'm totally into them, too...but both of my parents grew up on farms and met in 4-H so I have some rural roots for sure. Cowtown Pride.

    I love all animals but am particularly fond of cows. They are so cute and I love their eyelashes. The first one is so cool! xo

    im with ya sista! when mom redid her laundry room and staged it, most of the comments were about the huge cow painting versus the jute trim on the moulding!

    Have you seen the Marimekko Cow wallpaper - it's fabulous! My favourite is the black & white cows with the hot pink background. Kim @ The Style Project
