Donko The Donkey Who Might Be A Cow 绘画 由 Miki De Goodaboom

Watercolour painting of Mary the Scottish sheep riding an old donkey who looks like a cow in a field of yellow daisies in a beautiful finca in Turre in Andalusia in Spain.

Truffle McFurry tells the story:
" Hello everybody!

The other day my Mom Miki went to paint a beautiful little finca on the outskirts of our village. When she came back she told us that there was a weird creature there sitting among the yellow daisies, and she did not know really what it was.

Today Miki, Mary the Scottish sheep and me, Truffle, we decided to go back there and have a look. And yes, there it was! We went to him and asked him who he was. He said, he did not know himself, he thought he might be a donkey because he had a mane, but on the other hand he also looked like a cow. We all debated a while about it and then we decided that it does not really matter, if he is a donkey or a cow, much more important is that he is so special! And being so special, he needs a pretty name and so we called him Donko. He liked that very much!

Donko is very old, and sit all the time on his bottom because he is too weak now to stand on his legs. Mary asked him if she could ride him a bit, surely he could bear it because she is light as a feather. Donko accepted, said that he would feel very honoured as it was the first time in his long life that he would be carrying a Scottish sheep on his back.

There was also a beautiful dog wandering around, and Miki said that he was there the first time too. But he did not come closer, perhaps he was just taking care of Donko... from the distance you know... sometimes you do that with old people, you take care of them very much without them noticing it...
