After a holiday in Mallorca, Spain and having seen a number of beautiful paintings of bulls there, I was determined to create my own version in a similar style. While developing my design, my wife encouraged me to show the power of the bull without the typical aggressive stance associated with bull fighting. This is my attempt to show the strength, power and beauty of these animals with the relaxed brush strokes and the rustic style of the Mallorquin artists. I hope you like it.
