cow mutilations continue

(c) 2006 This is a multi medium piece, as it is a photograph I took and then painted and altered the painting with a color reversal. Thus, the work is Photography, painting, and computer enhanced.

There are lots of pleasant layering in this work. The cow reminds me of the cave paintings in France. The is a nice combination of textures as well.

Elton...really wonderful...intense imagery and subtle rendering... but, I almost want to turn it 90 degrees...maybe too trite...but...seems this orientation is gratuitous, given the agreement of the two major visual elements... I'd love to know how you decided this orientation! I really love this!

I don't like hamburger and I hate what is done to any animal in the name of food...just me. I find it atrocious like porn. Nice work here...You are making a point and bringing something to light...that not many think about. I am a veggie fruit person myself...I abhor the Big Mac! but to each his own...I can't make everyone feel like me and am not going to try...I like this work and the statement it presents....just an addage.

wow it shows the reality of what happens to a cow.. yet digital and color and all this makes the work more interesting and full of meanings good work indeed
