The fact that from a distance, the city resembles an adorned hat is so pleasing.

This is absolutely stunning, and a hell of a concept.

Serious question are there other giant city bovines in this setting and if so are bulls with a bigger city on their horns considered more attractive to other city cows. If so this means the economy and city planning affects city cow mating rituals

I dunno, you say "painting", but all I see is "magic".

What an incredible balance in the juxtaposition of power, movement, and grace, of impermanence and habitation, of enormity and humanity.

Thank you for making this, and sharing it with us all.

This is on my wall, and I love it so much. One day I will figure out the story that’s there. (I’m thinking the cow is related to Audhumla somehow, and maybe also an Indian bull.)
