The artist who only paints cow - John Marshall

Marshall is jovial and self-deprecating, not some cliched super-ego artist. Sometimes he can't believe that he has made a career as an artist and feels like the "luckiest man alive". He uses the word "privileged" and jokes that people don't believe he is a cow painter. Not that his subject matter is uncontroversial, following the recent foot-and-mouth outbreak.
He is also proud to call himself a "commercial artist". Yes, he is in a creative profession, but it is still a job. "I treat it as an office job," he says. "I'm in front of the canvas by 9:30am. If I've got to 11 and I haven't started, I feel like it is a day lost."
Marshall's studio faces west, and you can see why he bought the place 18 months ago: the light, today, is crystal clear. All the works for the new show were painted outside. "I'm finished by 8pm because the light's good and there are no distractions," he says.

Wonderful paintings! Here in Finland we have an artist called Miina Akkijyrkka who paints mostly cows, too.
