Flagpole

$100 |  11" X 10"  |  Acrylic on Marmoleum

There once was a nanny that lived on the outskirts of town, tied to a flagpole. There, away from the jumble of glass and alloy, she found her eight by eight patch of Kentucky Blue solitude. She confided in the cloud-hungry sun and badgered the pinhole stars as a way of getting even. It was here she felt herself, it was here she embraced life on the chain...

Silly Little Habit

It all started innocent enough. A few nibbles here, a kernel or two at the hors d'oeuvre table, a midnight snack at the feed trough. If only she could have looked to the future to see how the "silly little habit" would consume her every intention. The bites mushroomed into bushels, the occasional pecking evolved into a persistent gnawing and trivial indigestion turned to Clinical Laminitis.

Although her stomach had doubled in size as she now carried a balloon-like belly on stick legs, it all seemed manageable. Until the ethanol boom. Corn had become a hot commodity, the "Gold of the Bible-Belt" they said. Being a goat, she languished at the bottom of the supply chain.

It seems, indeed, as if the energy of these instinctual impulses is in a different condition from that in which it is found in the other regions of the mind.

The Procedure

Ungulotus  Underbite  Correctional Enhancement (UUCE) is typically a two-part procedure consisting of a stage-one jawline alteration followed by a bone density probe and cosmetic refit wiring. Renowned specialist, Doctor Vanschleshing of Switzerland, first performed the UUCE method while studying International Small Animal Husbandry (ISAH) at the University of Kansas in 1974. Although Vanschleshing originally documented UUCE on male Angora rabbits, he later perfected the procedure on domestic goats in the late 1980s while teaching Modern BioGenetic Psychology (MBGP) in Zurich. Today UUCE is widely accepted and practiced by veterinarians worldwide. To purchase this goat painting email Brad Bunkers.
