Face to face

Posted by Trae Mundt on April 16, 2022

Billy Oil painting of Goat. Portrait of friendly goat with brown and tan fur and pink nose. I met this goat in at a Farm.

Meeting this adorable goat was a lovely surprise! I painted his portrait shortly after we moved to Las Vegas, Nevada.

I met him at The Las Vegas Farm, a local pet rescue farm. I walked up to his corral to see the goats up close. This goat raised his body and placed his front legs on the corral bar in front of me. We were staring at each other face to face. I quickly took a few reference photos to help me paint his portrait. It was wonderful being so close.

His portrait was displayed at my house. One of my neighbors came by for a visit. She saw him and shared about her childhood memories of goats. I'm learning that owning a goat is a very special experience. One day I hope to have one. My neighbor bought the original painting.
