This is one of my latest entries into to the Denham Springs Fine Art Association Spring Art Show. I won first place for works under glass and was thrilled. This is done from a photograph sent to me by Uncle Fred. It is one of the beautiful Charolais bulls at his ranch in Opelousas. It was so much fun to paint and what a thrill when I won First Place. The judge made comments such as "She nailed this one". Below are a few photos from the Art Show Reception held May 5th.
