Milk Cows

9x10.25 mixed media on paper of three curious Jersey cows that is udderly funny.  I used ink to sketch them and watercolor for their bodies, then Montana acrylic markers in blue and green for sky and grass.  The middle ground is the white of the paper.  Yesterday when I painted this I was wanting to use brighter colors but decided to go with local color all the way.
