Young cattle miniature painting

'Curious Locals' © Tracy Hall 2009
2.25" x 1.75" miniature - watercolour on board

Calling the young beasties done for now at least. I'm not entirely happy with this one but can't quite put my finger on why. It looks better in real life than on screen (miniatures always do) but there is still something bothering me so will probably be back fiddling later. Anyway, on to other things :)

I can't imagine what would disastify you Tracy. This mini has it all! Actually, it really makes me laugh for those expressions on the calves are priceless, (and very familiar, for I too grew up around cattle)! I so enjoyed seeing the sketches beforehand too. You are a master at putting it all together!

Thanks Mary, I'll pin down the problem eventually or start again :) Thanks also so much to those who emailed with suggestions! It was great to get different perspectives and such good ideas. I really appreciated it :)

I think it is so beautiful, and it keeps on amazing me, how you can get all these details into that small a size ;)
