Alun Williams (British, b. 1961, Manchester)
Brown Cow
Oil on canvas
20 × 30 in.
Based in New York

Williams studied painting at the University of Wales and the Royal College of Art. He has exhibited in New York, London, and across Europe.

A brown cow, standing. Williams paints animals and figures with a thick, loaded brush — the surface builds up in ridges and valleys of oil paint. The cow fills the canvas, solid and present. No background drama, no compositional tricks. Just the animal, painted with the kind of attention that only comes from looking at something for a long time.
