I hate any sort of animal cruelty! Especially Bull fighting but as a lover of action painting and animals I thought I would have a go at a spoof painting of a bullfight with a woman. 
Thanks for taking a look, this will be my first and last using this subject.
It's a watercolour 20 by 22ins approx

I know what you mean!  I don't like animal cruelty either, but I have to admit I'm intrigued by the mystique of the bullfighter and also I love the regalia.  You did a terrific job on this, I really do love it!   I believe the term for female bullfighters is 'matadora,' but others here may know for sure.

This is really well done. I like your take on the "sport". Just let me know, I'll be her Picador!

BTW- I believe there is no change in the word. A female is still called "Matador". (Trivia- the first was in the 17th cent)
