Cattle studies
Some cattle studies which should help me with the finished artwork of the reconstruction drawing I am working on. My little herd of William Britain's plastic cows have modelled for numerous reconstruction drawings, not least of which were historic farmsteads which I worked on in the 1990s. The models themselves are now historical objects, the present Britain's farm animals seem to me less lifelike and difficult to scale. A 17th century engraving I found in a book about the English civil war will help me "age" the animals. Drawn on an A4 cartridge paper sketchpad, with Pentel 0.5mm pencil, Winsor and Newton watercolours and some fineliner pens.
