Absolutely - Bulls unlike your cow , have their penis depicted as shown, with the testicles hidden from the side behind the hind  legs. A cow would have a uniform shaped lower body, and milk udder approximately where the the testicles would be in the male.

However, a very bovine friendly skillfull drawing, thank you.]]></description>

Hi Sandra,

I typically use Scotch masking tape. To prevent the tape from tearing the paper, you can first tape another surface - like a piece of cloth or your clothing. This will help the tape release. You also could try pulling the tape away at a 90 degree angle from the art. I made a video a while back on preventing tape from tearing the paper. You can check it out here...https://thevirtualinstructor.com/blog/how-to-prevent-artists-tape-from-damaging-your-paper]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I can&#039;t resist--it&#039;s a cow, not a bull. Google British Simmental. Not all cows have always-visible udders, and that soft dewlap on the belly occurs in a lot of breeds and individuals. 

This piece turned out gorgeous. I&#039;ve been looking for guidance on oil pastels that actually gets the kind of end results I want to achieve for a loooong time. Thanks Matt!]]></description>
