What's better than cattle photos and autumn weather? A cow-themed paint night on a beautiful farm, of course!


Take me back to the crisp September night when Kay Montanye hosted her first Paint Night with the cows at North Acre Farm. The creative juices were flowing, and the conversations were light and fun as everyone picked their template and painted a masterpiece.


Fun Fact: All the templates were images that KTP has captured of the North Acre Farm cattle. It was so cool to see participants put their own, unique spin on my images.


The night was a complete hit! I can still hear the laughter and the soft moos from the cattle, and I’m trying to patiently wait for the next one!
