The prairies of North Dakota


Art is the only thing I have ever really wanted to do. Being an artist has been my dream from the very beginning. I have never wanted to get rich from my artwork. Instead, I want to be able to make enough to be able to give it away. I believe art brings people together. It heals, it brightens the world. Case Art isn't just another art store, it is my way of helping others through art.
There is a moment on the prairie when the winter realizes it cannot stay. Not all at once. Not dramatically. Just a quiet loosening at the edges of things.
The snow still lingers in scattered patches, stubborn as old memories. The fields wear the color of sleeping grass. And above it all, the sky gathers itself into something restless and alive. Dark clouds rolling forward like they have somewhere important to be.
But beyond the storm, the light is still there. That is the part I keep thinking about.
Nature rarely asks permission to begin again. The thaw comes muddy and uneven. The wind bends trees resisting the urge to be uprooted. The horizon disappears for a while. Even the sky seems uncertain of what it wants to become.
And still.... The season changes.
Maybe that is why the prairie feels honest to me. It never pretends transformation is graceful. Sometimes it arrives like a symphony. Sometimes it arrives with heavy winds and thunderous clouds with absolutely no respect for anyone's plans or the emotional stability of the livestock.
Either way, spring keeps coming. Quietly. Steadily. Even through, the Last of the Winter's Snow. 9 x 12 inches, oil on stretched canvas. It is gallery wrapped, wired and ready to hang.
No matter where life takes me, I vow to never stop using my art to help others. The talents we are given are meant to be cultivated and to be used to improve the lives of our fellow humans. It is a greater gift to give of these talents than it is to use them simply for personal gain.
She painted “Fire In The Sky” for me from a photo I took…. It’s amazing, and I’ll probably have another done.
My house is filled with her art! She’s done a commission of my precious dog and I find myself staring at it every day. She captured his personality and everything! I also buy her prints too and frame them. They definitely add to the aesthetic of my home! Her talent goes beyond measure!
I have bought several pieces from her over the years. Always very impressed with her Talent and amazing works of art she’s produces. Each one expresses the natural beauty of world around us.
Thoughtful and Beautiful art. The artist can capture your very idea and present it on canvas.
