Welcome
Denise Rich, THE EARLY YEARS
The artist as a young girl, exploring her artistic future, was temporarily sidetracked with delusions of being a dancer. It did not take long to discover that her talents were in a different artistic arena, and that she was better suited to fine arts both due to ability and the desire to remain sedentary.

These bulls are Brahma mixes. They were hanging out in a corral waiting for their turn to buck someone, looking like they are well prepared for the job.

Thanks to the Vice President of the Lakeside Rodeo Association, I was able to take some reference photos of their rodeo bulls. The first paintings from those pictures are now available.
I'm always looking for reference that shows personality and expression. ![]() 16 by 20 inches oil on gessoed masonite available Wednesday, May 16

I am often asked if I can do a
painting from someone's photograph of their cow, horse, daughter,
family dog, etc. The answer is yes. Painting from
photographs is all that I do. Every one of my
original oil paintings was done from a photograph that I have
taken. The style can vary from loose to almost photo real. With my
original oils it depends upon my mood, with your photos it depends on your
preference. This will all be discussed ahead of time to insure
that you receive the heirloom painting you are expecting.
If you would like to see the original photos from any of my paintings, please ask, here is one example. The intention here was not to be photo real, but to be realistic in a painterly style that captured the mood, the softness and sweetness of the scene. My subject range is limitless, if you have a photo of it, it can become a treasured oil painting. ![]() ![]() Original photograph. Original oil painting. Another example is my neighbor's Harley Davidson Fat Boy. The idea here was to be more photo real, but still be clearly a painting. If you would like to see larger images for comparison, please email me and I will be happy to send it to you. ![]() ![]() Original photograph. Original oil painting. Monday, May 14

![]() "She Takes After Her Father's Side" 18" x 18" oil on stretched canvas This is a common sight in the fields of beef cattle, Hereford cows with Black Angus sires producing Black Baldy calves. I love the contrast of the two colors on white face cattle. The reference photo for this pair was taken in Ramona. This painting is available, click here for more information. Wednesday, May 2

![]() Wholesteins 2 oil on canvas 20" x 24" This painting has just been finished. I love this look, another variation on a previously sold work, this whole painting is Holsteins. This is number two in a series I am developing with this theme. Great for Holstein fans, great for the dramatic black and white factor. This painting is available.
