The artistic skills of a senior at Mansfield’s Legacy High School recently helped him outdo a herd of competitors in a contest to decorate a fiberglass cow.
Abner Cabriales was one of three honorable achievement award winners in the Fourth Annual Lucerne The Art of Dairy art contest. The theme for this year’s competition was “Taste of Moo-sic.”
Students from across the nation submitted designs and Cabriales was one of 30 finalists who got to create their design using a life-size cow sculpture. Cabriales and the other honorable achievement winners each got $1,000, as did their art teachers. His design – “Plunge into the Moosic” - is on the Lucerne contest Web site.
Cabriales' design also featured a car stereo system inside, according to a March story in the online edition of The Rider, Legacy’s student newspaper. He told The Rider: “I tried to visualize the feelings that people associate with music and put that in my design.”
