Highland cattle sketch | Limited edition fine art print from an original drawing.

Highland cattle are an ancient Scottish breed, characterized by their long horns and long, wavy, woolly coats. They have a double coat of hair; the oily outer coat sheds rain and snow, while the soft undercoat keeps them warm in harsh climates. Historically, they were kept in small byres attached to their owners' houses during the winter, which helped keep the houses warm.
I sat in the biting wind for hours, watching these gentle giants stand defiant against the encroaching storm. Capturing the rugged elegance of their gaze made me feel a deep, quiet connection to the timeless spirit of the highlands.
