ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This cow portrait is actually painted on the back of an abstract painting "fail." I was so frustrated with what I was trying to do that--in a fit of coffee-fueled artist rage--I tore the canvas off the stretcher bars with my bare hands, flipped it over, tacked it to the wall, and painted this cow. So this is the piece that turned my frustrated day around, allowing me to leave the studio in peace. I've always loved painting in black and white since I'm inspired black and white photography. I believe this was only my second black and white painting at the time it was created. This is a stretched canvas. For overseas shipping, I'm happy to take the canvas off the stretcher bars and ship it in a tube to your door. **I ship all of my work fully insured for full market value** Thanks for looking!

American painter, Aimée Rolin Hoover, has devoted more than twenty years to depicting animals and nature. Initially, she attributed her early exploration of animal imagery simply to her lifelong affection for animals. But as her artistic practice developed, she discovered a much deeper connection between animals, nature, and healing. Encounters with animals—whether locking eyes with a coyote or the gentle touch of a horse's muzzle—revealed to her a deeper awareness of life and her surroundings. These moments provided brief but welcome respites from the human tendency to overthink, guiding her to sense, feel, and connect. Her current body of work is inspired by this belief in the remarkable power of animals to ground us in the present moment, enriching our connection with life. Through her expressive paintings, she aims to capture the essence of these subtle yet profound moments, using her subjects as portals to invite viewers to experience joy, peacefulness, curiosity, and introspection. Aimée currently works and lives in southern California with her husband Scott, their dog Björn, and their cat Sesame.
