Brass Name Plate

$120 |  11" X 10"  |  Acrylic on Marmoleum

Her milking production numbers were down. Her feed/gain ratio was off the charts. Worst of all, her once perfectly symmetrical horns were now crumbling. This once proportional beauty used to light up a milking stanchion. At one point she held the Iowa state record for most milk produced in a 48 hour period. She had her own stall with a brass name plate on the gate and the finest virgin-cut straw at her hooves. Ah, yes the tri-county fair glory days, the "best in show" ribbons, the gourmet rations of polenta and extract of alfalfa. All these tender memories seemed so far away as she watched the rendering truck pull into the yard... To purchase this goat painting email Brad Bunkers.

I think I'm in love. I hope it's not too late to throw myself in front of that truck.
