"""Moored here by choice, they live their lives tenaciously protecting fragile shores"" is the final description in 'Farm Islanders' and what best describes for me, the beauty and somewhat barrenness of the Nebraska Sandhills. It is an area best suited to farms that specialize in raising cattle. With farms that stretch with miles between homesteads, it is a lonely place filled with a unique beauty that captured my heart. Twenty years since my last visit, the grandeur of this land remained fixed in my mind and heart, causing me to create a series of plates early in 2022. My art has resonated with my customers as I hope it will with you."
