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.

Happy Cow Art

A common practice with artists is to do preliminary drawings and sketches for planning an oil painting. Sometimes several similar views are done to enable chosing the best one to paint.

I have generally only offered oil paintings for purchase, but I am going to start listing for sale some studies, charcoal and graphite of the Happy Cow paintings, as well as others.
I think they would make great gifts for any Holstein fan, especially if they love the Happy Cows.
This is one of my favorites of the Happy Cows:

You may recognize it as California Is The Place To Be. This is
graphite on Arches 90 lb hot press watercolor paper, a surface I am
especially fond of drawing on. This is about 5.5"x7".

I love the value studies, hope you will too. I'll be posting more as I have time,
but commissions are calling!
