About This Painting
Settled but watchful, the longhorn gazes across the pasture, its presence calm and deliberate.
A lone Texas Longhorn rests in a sunlit meadow of thick green grass, surrounded by a dense line of leafy trees. The bovine’s body is relaxed, its coat mottled with warm browns and whites, rendered with subtle shading that defines muscle and bone. Its horns stretch wide, arching gracefully with subtle curves that echo the animal’s quiet strength. Above, the sky is a soft blue with faint tonal shifts suggesting depth and distance. Signed by Teresa Bernard in the lower left corner, the mark ensures originality and authorship.
Painted in oil on gallery-wrapped canvas, the artwork measures 20″ wide by 16″ high and 1.5″ deep. The composition continues around all edges, allowing for display without a frame. It arrives unframed, making it easy to tailor the artwork to your personal style and decor. A Certificate of Authenticity is included, hand-signed by Teresa and embossed with her personal seal. The COA confirms authenticity, provenance, and lasting value for collectors and art lovers alike.

Artist Reflections
I’ve always been drawn to the quiet strength of the Texas Longhorn. Around our country homestead, it’s not unusual to drive by ranches where these iconic cattle graze or rest in the shade, their wide horns stretching like wings across the landscape. Some can span up to seven feet tip to tip—it’s something you have to see in person to truly appreciate.
The Longhorn is more than just a common ranch animal here in the Lone Star State—it’s a living symbol of Texas history and tradition. This piece was inspired by that legacy and the everyday presence of these animals across rural Texas.
—Teresa Bernard, oil painter
