“The painting far exceeded my dreams. It’s the best investment we’ve made. It’s priceless to own such a personal painting and a beautiful interpretation of our cows at that snapshot in time.”

Peter, two time painting commissioner

Bespoke commissions are welcome and there a lot of reasons that a commissioned painting could be the right choice for you. A portrait of your own cow perhaps? I just have one rule, it must be a cow! If you’d like to discuss an idea for a painting please get in touch. Please note there can be quite a waiting list so if you’re commissioning for a special event leave yourself plenty of time.

Why choose lauren?

There’s a reason I’ve earned the title of ‘The Cow Owner’s Cow Artist’, I capture cows as they are! Painting from photographs of real cows, my paintings truly are portraits.

I’ve spent the last decade perfecting that balance of artistic flare while remaining true to the breed. The cow is the star of the show, then as you look longer the painting the abundance of colour comes through. I’m now trusted to create bespoke commissioned artworks for herdsmen across the country.

Each artwork is priced individually based on size and complexity of the piece. If you’d like to discuss an idea for a painting please get in touch.

Scarlett

Scarlett wasn’t a commisioned painting however I had to share her story!

We fell in love with Scarlett after we saw a photo of her in the back of a UK Home magazine, and we are so delighted that we reached out to you! Its been an amazingly easy and positive experience. Your team was more than professional, you all treated us like very important people.

You and your team were absolutely fabulous to work with- in fact, I would gratefully work with you/your team over most of the galleries here in the USA. You all responded immediately to the initial inquiry (it was, literally within the hour,) were phenomenal communicators all along the way, and even handled the shipping details to ensure that Scarlett arrived safely and in a timely manner. You all are the very best and we joyfully plan on purchasing again.

She attracts a lot of attention at our home, and it’s a delight to see her every time we walk down our hall. We absolutely love the painting- especially her eyes and her smile. (Well, we imagine she is smiling!)

The Cow & Calf

We chose Lauren’s Cows after we saw your exhibition at the Yorkshire Dales Food Festival last year.

We bought a print and loved it so much decided we would like one of her commissions.
The painting was a gift to each other for our engagement and the subject itself means a lot to us as the back drop is the Cow & Calf where we live nearby and have enjoyed many family walk together.

Our experience was excellent Lauren kept us updated and we also met her at her studio in York and looked at other pieces of hers.

The result is just what we wanted and more it gets so many lovely comments from everyone who sees it! We love it!

Lark & Bluebell

I didn’t know I wanted to commission a painting until I saw Lauren’s Cows on Twitter. I was hooked by your quirky, individual style, that had me wanting to reach right out to your cows.

I asked to paint one of our cows, Lark, for my wife, Jill’s birthday present – and it’s been such a brilliant success! We loved it so much that I couldn’t help commissioning a second one, Bluebell, our Guernsey. It’s so perfect and captures the essence of our house-cow. Can’t imagine life without them now!

From the first contact, it was clear that you were someone I wanted to paint for us. You’re human – and you love cows! It’s been such a fun process working with you – here’s a little quote from your email when I enquired about collecting the first painting from you which I loved…

“Yeah that’s fine for you to collect it and meet me- unless you’re a murderer? Then maybe it’s not such a good idea! Either London or Scarborough, take your pick.”

It’s been brilliant – you know exactly what image you need to create an outstanding painting, lots of feedback, no faffing, straight into it, and you really listen. I know where I am money-wise and the painting far exceeded my dreams. It’s the best investment we’ve made.

It’s priceless to own such a personal painting and a beautiful interpretation of our cows at that snapshot in time – their youthful faces gazing at you happily ‘through the window’.
