She is a 12 year old grade Jersey, dry and due, and was found standing on a muddy hill side, at the end of a rutted road, in Carroll County, only a hundred miles from Owenlea Farm.

The practical value of great cows, or great paintings, or great anything, doesn't have a thing to do with why they are created.
People create, because they are internally driven to create.
Cows are as good a medium as any other. There are a few who believe that even the greatest artists with canvas and paint, are mere mechanics, when compared to the greatest of the Holstein and Jersey breeders.
