These paintings and drawings share stories of farming and agrarian tradition. Some are crafted from black and white photographs found in dusty closets, others are depictions of our daily work as farmers and land stewards. My artwork is a nod to the timelessness and enduring virtue of this work; inspiring gratitude, pride and responsibility to carry on the traditions of our grandmothers and grandfathers; in both knowledge and sweat.
