This is not a metaphor" by Terence McKenna kept running through my mind during the weeks I painted this piece. Nature does indeed have messages for us if we choose to pay attention. Sometimes w... 4 Dianna Bartel "Thunderstorm on the Prairie" When I think of Kansas weather I think of contradiction. Drama and peace in the same breath.

They dot the Kansas landscape adding spice to the tranquil scene. What joy they bring to those who view them. Mary Foley Gorman received her Bachelor of of Arts degree from ... 19 Clive Fullagar "After the Golden Hour" Most artists like to paint in the Golden Hour just before the sun sets.
