June Returns, 2022
It's that time of year when the farms turn green and we await the blooms. I typically find that July 1st is a great time to photograph flowers. This would be the time before that, but after the 'mud and wind' season on the prairie. I especially enjoyed working on the foreground of this threadpainting. I hope you'll take a moment to enjoy a closer look.
Please note, my camera had a difficult time reading the greens here. The mat is a soft sage green and not brown or grey.
 
Please allow a week for me to get everything packaged properly and shipped.

Avoid permanent display in direct sunlight. Clean glass with a dry cloth. If using a cleaner, spray the cloth instead of the glass to avoid damaging the matting and artwork.
 
Small Footprint
 
I ship my artwork in clean, repurposed cardboard and packing marterials whenever I can. This means you will find bubble wrap that I choose not to throw away, and silly looking boxes on occasion. There's no harm in that. The most important thing in our transaction is that your art arrives in great condition. I do ask that you repurpose my materials if you are able as well.
 
Thank you for your interest in my work!
