Veggie Cow, Houston CowParade 2001
With Thanksgiving coming up I thought about this cow that I saw in Houston: 



Artist: Robert E. Lee High School
Sponsor: EOG Resources, Inc.

Who says you can’'t be a vegetarian to enjoy a cow? Veggie-cow, a bright, vivid design containing all varieties of vegetables, even includes a few pieces of fruit for added color. This one-of-a-kind bovine features red pepper horns, a corn on the cob mouth, olive eyes, pea pod ears, and a hilarious tomato udder. Ten talented art students from teacher Jane Middleton'’s art classes worked on the cow, which was created by Priyanka Wani. Priyanka was born in India and her design was inspired by her religion and culture.

Jane Ann Middleton has been an art teacher at Lee High School since 1993. She has a BBA from Texas Tech University and a M. Ed. in art from the University of Houston. She studied in San Miguel de Allende with the Maryland Art Institute and studied watercolor in Provence, France.
