How to Get a Head Without Hunting
Our artist Merikay has created many different cow and bull sculptures over the years.
The first was in the 70’s when she was commissioned to do a rendition of the
Wisconsin State Fair’s blue-ribbon winning Black Angus steer.
(Sorry, we don't have a picture of it.)
This large Jersey cow head
sculpture is the newest addition to our virtual pasture. It was commissioned for the
centennial of a Wisconsin dairy, and features smooth faux fur carefully color-matched
to the company's “cameo cow”. As with all of our cattle, it is based on
a hand built mixed media base, and its nose and eyes are hand-made.
Order a Jersey like this one for yourself, or for a deserving friend or relative.
About Cows
Cattle have been domesticated since about 6500 BC, and are economically
important for their meat, milk, and hides. They graze on grasses, but
most animals raised for meat are fed corn and other foods that make them
gain weight faster than they would on a grass diet.
Capture the spirit of the Old West by adding this large Hereford
to your decor.
Our large Hereford head features smooth rust and distressed white faux fur
over a hand built mixed media base. Our artist Merikay also makes his nose, eyes, and
horns by hand.
This hereford has been sold, but you may order one for yourself, or your favorite
cowboy or cowgirl.
Our large black and white cow head sculpture is a prize addition to
anyone’s collection.
Our large cow features black and white faux fur fabric over a hand built
mixed media base. Our artist Merikay also makes her nose, eyes, and horns, and accents her
big brown eyes with long lashes.
Just for fun, she includes a working cow bell on a braided cord around her neck.
As in a real herd, the actual markings on each of my cows is unique.
Order one for yourself or for that cow fancier on your gift list.
Like our larger version, this sweet small calf
head sculpture is built upon a handmade, lightweight base, covered with
man-made furs. Our artist Merikay also makes its soulful eyes and stubby horns.
This adorable creature wants to join your herd, or to be its first member!
