Description
What?? I Needed a Milk Bath Spa Day! watercolor and ink cow in a tub art by Conni Schaftenaar.
A friend saw a similar image and asked if I could paint him a cow in a tub to hang on his bathroom wall. This is not my original idea, but it is my original interpretation of a cute scene of a cow in a tub in an art-deco-style bath. I added the milk bath idea based on a suggestion from FAA friend Laurel Adams, and I added the little crown of daisies on the relaxing cow to make this image my own. I drew the scene in Micron pen and then used Payne's Gray watercolor to add shapes and shades. The daisies have a touch of Gamboge.
Had a request for the name of this cow, so I wrote her a haiku!
Daisy is a Cow!
Got in tub, I don't know HOW!
How Now, Black White Cow?
I can also attest to the fact that this image looks GREAT on a mug! It's fun to have Lady Gray tea in my Daisy mug!
