Why Cowguy?

Why you might ask do you use the name "Cow Guy?" As an artist I have been creating cow art for a number of years. My wife and I participate in outdoor art shows and often as fair goers approach our booth you hear such remarks as "Here's the Cow Guy's booth," or "The Cow Guy is over here." We sell small 5x7 inch prints of my cow creations and they have become a collectable item for many people. The lovely fellow in the picture is an example of my work. We also have a cow couple in the basket of a hot air balloon, "Just the Two of Us," then there is "Born to be Wild" a cow with motorcycle sunglasses, and "The Four Seasons," Jimmy and Margarita (on the beach with drinks with little umbrellas), "Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy," (our Christmas cow), "Sweetie Pie and Cool Dude" (the loving couple), "The Beach Boys," (standing in shallow water, yellow COWABUNGA surf board stuck in the sand between them all wearing outrageous sunglasses) these and many more. Then of course there was the full size fiberglass cow for the 2006 Wisconsin CowParade (presently residing in the National Dairy Shrine in Fort Atkinson, Wi and most recently a bench with a cow theme for a local 150 years of being a town celebration. Yes, cows are definitely us.
