The signs of the Zodiac - Taurus

I am off to the book fair at Porte de Versailles today, but before I wanted to post this:

This is the first TAURUS watercolour painting in the Zodiac series, clic on it to see details:)

Andrea and Kim said...: Andrea, this is fabulous! You have made these scary bulls so friendly. I love that!

The book fair sounds wonderful. I will be eager to hear all about it! What an exciting time for you.; March 17, 2008 at 2:19 PM
Cathie said...: Only YOU could make a ferocious bull look sweet and whimsical with that little birdie on his ear and surrounded by flowers.

I envy your journey to the book fair today. I DO love, love, love book fairs - particularly antiquarian book fairs. You must share with us what you purchased. I am now reading A New Earth - very spiritual and enlightening.
Enjoy your day dear Andrea.

Lynn Cohen said...: This looks to me to be the mating dance between these two huge bulls. Viving I believe for a sweet ladies hoof? ;-)

That little bird perching on the bull's ear is creating a very intriguing and meaningful contrast.. as if bringing together all the opposites: heavy and light, coarse and soft.. power and gentleness ,etc.
Loved it sooooooo much.
P.S. The harmony of colors and forms and even the perspective is fabulous.; March 18, 2008 at 9:22 AM
