"You Talkin' To Me?"

"You Talkin' To Me?"
by
 Jack Providenti
8 x 10 inches
oil on board


I was driving on a dirt road towards Water Canyon, New Mexico and spotted two cows walking along near the road. I stopped the car, rolled the window down, and feeling kind of flippant, said "Hi Mr. Cow!". This cow turned to look at me and his expression instantly reminded me of the old movie "Taxi Driver" when Robert DiNero delivered his now famous line..."You talkin' to me?" so I snapped a photo, and from that , created this painting.

If you would like to purchase this, or any of my paintings, please send me an e-mail.
