Looking for this artist/print...can you help?

[Little Conestoga]

The name of the print is "Belted Gallaways" by an artist named BJ or DJ Bartholomew. It is a folk art type print of the "Oreo cows" seen a lot in Southeastern PA. It may be a local southern PA artist, but I have exhausted local shops and galleries, tried Liebermans, now I humbly approach all of you......

Good morning

I found several galloway art pictures, but none of them have that artist's name. I searched for about an hour and came up empty. In case you want to look, here they are:

The only print with Galloways by a PA artist I can think of is by Peter Sculthorpe. I'm not familiar with Bartholomew.

Whoa, Mike...Thank YOU!!!! Maybe I can find one that the customer would settle for. I appreciate it!

Probably no help here, but the breed of cow you're talking about are Holsteins, Which brings us to the possibility of a whole new search for prints of Holsteins....
