The first goat, based on our Nubian dairy goat, the Diva/Herd Queen by that name. This iconic image quickly became our signage and primary marketing device and is synonymous with The Blue Goat restaurant.

Based on our Alpine buck, Lucky was my next barnyard subject. Yes, my model had odd, sworled Shrek-horns too—the result of overly vigorous horn growth that busted through the effort to disbud him as a buckling. Horned goats are often dehorned to make them safer and easier to manage on farms—horns get goats trapped in fences, or in the collars of other goats. Lucky passed on his vigorous horn genes to all of his offspring, and we abandoned the futile disbudding practice. This moody blue painting branded our Hundred-Candle Solstice Dinners and appeared on our custom beer growlers, among other places.

Look at those horns! (Why yes, this spunky doe is indeed the offspring of Lucky.) Aptly-named, though she looks very innocent in this pose. I so loved the rich, color-driven experience of our growing body of large goat artwork, and decided a red-themed piece was in order. She advertised our Valentine’s Day dinners and other special events at the Goat over the years, and joined the appealing line-up on the brick wall.

THAT’S NO GOAT!
Based on our farm’s Suffolk ram by the same name, this five-foot piece was born out of a fleeting flirtation with branding a Black Sheep bar hangout in the front corner of the restaurant. We ended up covid-closed in 2020, and never did launch our Black Sheep bar vision, but Rambo quickly became a dramatic favorite in the barnyard collection. He oversaw the post-covid relaunch of the Blue Goat Farm Market in 2023. This piece retains the fluid, emotional resonance of my earlier work, while introducing a decisive new precision and clarity.
