"Experience the 2017 Field Journal; The Chisholm Trail through Art" Show in Cottonwood Falls, KS

     A couple of my new paintings are included in the show "Experience the 2017 Field Journal; The Chisholm Trail through Art" at Symphony in the Flint Hills Gallery in Cottonwood Falls, KS.  This show is a part of the events of the 2017 Symphony in the Flint Hills which is commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Chisholm Trail.  The artworks exhibited in this show are the works that are going to be included in their Field Journal, the annual publication from the Symphony in the Flint Hills.
     Since I was not very familiar with the history of Chisholm Trail, I did some research on it last year to create these works.  It was quite inspiring to think about the life of the cowboys who, I believe, were also sojourning while they were going though the trail.  I am glad to be invited to be one of the artists in this show as well as in the Field Journal for two consecutive years.  The opening reception is April 8th.  It is wonderful to be able to visit the Flint Hills again in this beautiful spring season.
