Jenniky .. Why the cow? I was born and raised and stayed as a dairy farmer til life changed. Honestly, my ♥ is still there! What inspired me? It kind of came as a dare or challenge from someone else! I wasn't about to be proven that I could not do it! As for what do I do? ... someday I'd like to find the answer to that myself. In short, I'll do most anything that's legal and someone will pay me $$ !!! After all, you know variety IS the spice of life .... and I like lots of spice in my life. You're going to have quite a gallery of people in this masterpiece! Great sketch again and quite the
hot babe"!!! Hope you posted it onto the other thread.

MCB
... I'm not sure if you're asking me? IF so, it's hanging in my family room along with the original photo. She's also done the show circuit and picked up a red ribbon (first place) at each of the four shows she's been to!

Or IF you're asking about Jenniky and Celia ... it's in regards to this Challenge ...

So come on over and join us and create something yourself.

An interesting fact for you ... some Canadian neighbours left here with their Holsteins several years ago, and resettled in your area!

Thanks for the compliments. Although I'm not sure what you mean in regards to the crewel work?

Thank you! It certainly was a labour of love ... and with all honesty, in all the things I've done, it's probably the one I'm most proud, because of the detail achieved in replicating the photo.

Everyone! ... Thanks so much for looking at Miss Mazel and appreciating her. While a cow is not for everyone, I hope it inspires others to perhaps replicate photos of other subjects. I proved ... it CAN be done!
