I'd forgotten I made these videos.

Untill I recieved an unexpected and belated comment on utube today. It was asking how long it took to paint the highland cattle?


The answer is I did not paint it all in one go, but if I added all the time together I would say at least a day to make and paint the background and a day to cut out and paint the cattle and ponies.



The Konic Ponies and Longhorn Cattle in the Blean are of great interest to me and Cosmo who can't stop himself barking at them. They both seem pretty laid back about him barking though.
I enjoyed making these ambiguious scenes of painted and real situations together. If I had time I would make more like them of other animals and even plants found within the blean.
