In these strange times of social distancing Sam has created a lockdown painting depicting the 2 metre rule, otherwise known as the 2 mootre rule, hoping to put a smile on your face during this unsettled period.
There is no escaping the fact that Highland cattle are ridiculously cute. With their shaggy coats, just-out-of-bed hair, long curving horns and teddy-bear appearance, they are highly appealing ... put simply, they make people smile.
"Sam Fenner’s much sought after paintings don't hang on gallery walls for long. One reason Sam engenders such loyalty among collectors is because she imbues her subjects with almost human characteristics as well as being technically excellent paintings. Sam Fenner paints animal portraits, but they are much more than mere realistic images. They have a painterly quality which is an absolute joy."
