Highland Sumi-e

Highland Cattle in Ink and MistA shaggy Highland bull stands in the foreground, painted in the loose brushwork of Japanese sumi-e. Black ink washes shape its heavy coat and long, curving horns, the tips warmed with a soft ochre gold. Behind it, faded mountains dissolve into fog while grasses flick up from the earth in quick, wet strokes. The mood is quiet and grounded, equal parts wilderness and calm. The monochrome palette and misty depth suit a range of settings.
