This is a Charolais cow portrait in oil on linen.  I took the photo reference for this in Ramona among the same herd of cattle as the recent painting of the Hereford cow and her Black Baldy calf.
My daughter thinks it looks like Bodacious the famous Rodeo Bull.  I'm pretty sure they are from the same type of stock, but of course this is a cow, not a bull.

I really loved painting the swirls and putting a lot of subtle color in.
