Commissioned for Fine Art Restore

–

This piece was painted in the new workshop of the fine art restoration company for the lovely folks of Chris and Anna Bull and their 3 daughters.

The title of the last bull keeper refers to their last name “Bull” and the fact that we still live in a world where it kind of is standard that the girl takes the last name of the husband. There for potentially their 3 daughters are the last bull keepers. When presenting the finished piece I spoke to the young ladies about this and that they should try and keep their surname in the game. On the wall you see a gaucho girl that wears an small key as earring and stands for the next generation of bull keepers. Within the bull you see a landscape painting of a place in the lake district that has a special meaning for Chris and Anna. Thank you for the trust on this project.

A big thank you goes to my buddies at blank wall assassins for setting this up
