When I visited GWK Cultural Park, I saw some of these artistically painted molded polyester cows. These outdoor art exhibition will last until 7 August. On 9 August, there will be auction for this cow art. About 40 life-sized painted cows will be auctioned.

These polyester cows were manufactured in Swiss with white color original, then painted by some well-known Balinese artists. I just show you one of them here...

Hi Benyamin,
I hope Ricardo sees this one because he has shown many pictures of a similar exhibition in Lisbon.
Good picture with strong colours,
regards, Gerrit

Hi Benyamin,
Very good shot of this lovely cow. I like the POV. Very good colors and contrast.
TFS and cheers

Bonjour Benyamin
Joli cliché de cette vache aux magnifiques couleurs.
Merci pour le partage.
Amitiés

Hello Benyamin,
How nice to see a CowArt from other places on the world, thanks to Aires. This is quite artistic and colorful and you took it from a good POV and with a very good composition. The background works well with the cow, as well. I hope that you have more (in Lisbon, we have 101 cows, right now, spread around the city). I've added this one to the theme.
Best wishes,
Ricardo

Very nice lightness and colors.

- Beautiful composition, I like the warm colors and light, very original, well done!

Hi Benyamin,
A few years ago there was also a cow parade here in Brussels. For the 175th anniversary of hour country they made a horseparade. You'll find some of the horses in my TE gallery.

Grande abraço Benyamin.

Hi Benyamin

There was a time when 'art' cows like these, were displayed around central Brisbane train stations. Wish I'd taken a few shots now. Bagus!

I love these painted cows, they seem to travel the world, I think I've seen them on TE in Prague, Paris, and now Bali. I've seen them in person also near my home in the city of Portland, Oregon. They're so creative and bright, a fun way to raise money for a cause. You've captured all the color here and managed the bright light well, placing the shadow to the left of the cow. I love seeing the tropical plants behind him, thanks for adding to the "Cow Parade", well done.

Hi Ben,
We've had a CowParade too, and some cows liked it so much that they stayed! Until a while ago, at least... I'll have to check!

Ben, I love these colourful cows, scattered all over the world! I've seen them in São Paulo 6 months ago, I think, some of them in front of huge skyscrapers! It's interesting to see them in a more natural place, like this one in your pic. Nice work, my frind! Regards! Miguel.

Hello Benyamin
Funny to see these art-cows in Bali too.
I know expositions of them in very many European cities. Rage-cows. You can collect them in smaller version.

I was right, these plastic cows are taking over the world.
I've already seen them in Lisbon, and I've heard reports of them in Athens, Edinburgh and various other places.
Now it seems they've made it to South East Asia, they really do get around!
Its just a plastic cow, but your shot is well composed and colourful, and I like the inclusion of the people in the background.
Cheers,
Ben

holy colorful cow! interestingly beautiful!
