Wildflowers are a true prairie gift and symbolize individuality. I think of them as good souls born of the land. My favorite photograph ever taken by made dad was of my mother in a field of wild yarrow. Wildflowers are fleeting beauty in face of the warming land. My rendition has stone texture, paint, shimmering […]

All Hallow’s Moon
The veil between the seen and unseen is said to be thin on All Hallow’s Eve, and what lies beyond is sensed. This moon represents the portal to the ethereal place between light and dark. Although the days are growing shorter since the autumn equinox, the descent toward the season of dark and contemplation accelerates […]
The Hunter Moon
As light wanes and the land lets go of the fervent growing season, autumn reminds us of the endless cycle of life. We slip into shadow and encroaching quiet, a time to banish negativity from your life. This moon embodies the spirit of the full October moon, the Hunter, created with the ash of prairie […]

Indian grass is synonymous with the North American prairie and her showy plumage tells us we are entering a new season. A painting to symbolize the life journey and […]
Moon of Thresholds
Life must have balance of light and dark.

It has symbols carved with limestone, iron and snow goose feathers and created at the time of the January full moon. A piece to remind […]
Greening Fields
And as we approach the Old World start of the agricultural year, St Bridget’s day (Feb 1-2), there is sense of welcoming on the land. My rendition of a snow covered field greening in the east is made of stone texture, paint, rust, and Smoky Hill river silt. What I love about creating this piece […]
Murmuration of Blackbirds
Murmurations are mystery incarnate to me. Forming to swoop over prairie fields picking at fallen grain, their structure and form mesmerizes. I’ll stop what I’m doing to watch. It draws me in fully. Frenetic thoughts and worries vanish, instead I am there, fully present. And maybe, that’s their gift. […]
