Cow Parade 2003
2003 Cow Parade Event was held in Atlanta Georgia. I was selected to paint and/or sculpt 2 cows for this "Parade" of cows art exhibit.

A Little About Cow Parade....
Following in the hoofprints of Chicago, New York, Las Vegas, London and other cities around the world, CowParade is coming to Atlanta. Our city will serve as an urban pasture to the herd of 200 painted, costumed, festooned and whimsically transformed cows that will be on display on streets and parks this summer. The cows are then auctioned off to raise money for charity.
CowParade Atlanta 2003, brought to you by presenting sponsor Chick-fil-A and host sponsor McKenna Long & Aldridge, LLP, is the most recent incarnation of a wildly successful public art exhibition designed to celebrate the spirit of fun, art and community. At the end of the art exhibit, Sotheby's will auction 50 to 70 "icon cows" at a black-tie fundraiser, followed by an online auction. The highest live auction bid for an icon cow is $110,000! Proceeds benefit the Southeast Division of the American Cancer Society in conjunction with their 2003 fundraiser, the Cattle Barons' Ball and TechBridge, a non-profit organization providing high quality, subsidized technology consulting and development services to Georgia charitable organizations.
CowParade first began in Zurich, Switzerland in 1998, and both the 2000 CowParade in New York City and the 1999 CowParade in Chicago were widely touted as the most successful public art programs in the cities' history. Over 44 million people viewed the New York event and the Chicago event generated nearly $500 million in economic impact. Close to $9 million has been raised for charitable organizations since CowParade started in 1998.
