April 24, 2010I was walking through Safeway buying groceries and minding my own business, when I encountered this rare and wonderful sight. I took some photos, of course, but I didn't know much about it. When I finally got around to posting this beautifully-painted cow, I looked it up online and realized just how special it was. Cow-painter Kathryn George is one of only 20 students in the entire U.S. who was a finalist in the Lucerne Art of the Dairy cow-painting contest. Congratulations, Kathryn! Your cow is beautiful and you are talented. I love blue. I'm glad I got a chance to see this!
Kathryn attends Knappa High School. For those who don't know the area, Knappa is just a few twists and turns up the road east of Astoria.

I love MOOtown. Marvin Gaye was always my favorite. A shame what has happened to Detroit.

Kathyrn is very talented! This cow would go nicely with Ocala's horses. I think it's udderly delightful!
What an awesome piece of art! Very mooooving! Sorry, couldn't resist.
Congratulations Kathryn!
I hope it gets out to a place it can be admired by everyone. It's great!
Painted cowes are a hype in Europe for a couple of years now. It brightens up dull places, days, moments..... ;)
