After all\, how do we begin to choose which stories to tell from all the days and years? And who cares? First of all\, no life is ordinary. No life is without miracles and magic\, great loss and great love. And probably no life is more crucial for our children to understand then ours\, because they share more than our genetics\, they share our spiritual DNA. What made us who we are\, helps them see who they can become. In that sense\, we leave them with more than stories. We leave them with meaning and hope.  \n  \n***By registering for this class\, you are signing up to participate during the “Schedule” dates listed above.

The magic of bringing something to life drives my artistic journey. \nInspired by the American West\, my Kansas upbringing immersed me in nature and animals\, shaping my artistic vision. My work blends cherished moments with a quest for semi-realism and detail. \nReflecting on a map by Lewis & Clark that notes “Innumerable Amounts of Buffalo\,” I ponder the history and fauna that shaped my land. Recently\, I’ve embraced the theme of “Imperfectly Imperfect\,” celebrating rough lines and leaving flaws visible\, finding beauty in their authenticity. \nMy creative process begins long before I enter the studio. I carefully consider my subjects\, compositions\, and mediums\, aiming to convey the unique peace I associate with the prairie.
