Pastures of Memory Series
In these paintings, the cows of Wisconsin’s farmland take center stage — not as mere livestock, but as quiet witnesses to the passing seasons and keepers of a rural heritage.

From fence-line exchanges to fields heavy with summer’s last hay, and twilight pastures alive with fireflies, each scene offers a glimpse into the rhythms that have shaped life in the countryside for generations.

Here, light, land, and animal meet in moments both ordinary and profound — reminders that the beauty of rural life often rests in its simplest truths.
