I was recently inspired to use stencils in my artwork. I bought several stencils at the local arts and crafts store, got home, opened them, and created this scene, now known as "How Now Brown Cow." This painting, along with the others, is in the Art for Children collection.

This painting is whimsical and cheery. It could easily hang in a children's room.

My intention is to bring fun and whimsy at the end of a very dreary and tumultuous year of 2020.

I am pleased to announce that as of March 8, 2021, this painting, along with the rest of the Art for Children series, was selected to be in a book of illustrations for children. A Squirrel Hollow Picnic was chosen to be on the back cover. If you're interested in purchasing the book for a child you love, you may purchase it here.
