Friesian Fresh






This here is a picture of a cow.A friesian cow. Its not mine...Both the cow and the picture but I suddenly love cows.  Not because of what they produce (and I am not talking about calves) but Lupira is going to want this print for her next movie premier. Can we just call it Mwendwa? Am sure that's a name you shall all agree to.






Back in the day my grandpa (God rest His soul) used to name his cows. You are probably wondering why..I was too, for the longest time. Was it for the cows self esteem? Was it a way to flatter the cow? Was it to get the cow to produce more milk?  Bruh I could never tell. Did the cow even understand?  Please note I would never get the names correct so Incase I forget your name, just know it started with cows..not just you. They are also living beings so don't even try to catch feelings. 





The only name that stuck to my head at that time was 'Mwendwa' and 'Karimi'. To me all cows were female and grandpa never got tired of correcting me.  Such wonderful memories.





I am not planning to be a Shepherd or a herder...but when I saw this piece of cloth, I knew 'Mwendwa' was trying to contact me from the other side. Honey I was here for it!! Like I don't even think the world is ready for a Cleo and 'Mwendwa' colab.. All I know is its gonna be bananas..so if you had a 'Mwendwa' in your farm or still do, get yourself one of this pieces and represent. 'Mwendwa' is about to be a way of life and am here for it!! Here is 'Mwendwa' in three different styles. Grab you a 'Mwendwa' and lets paint the town red.








This was so much fun creating and thanks for staying till the end.
