Description

Dimensions: 16x16"

Medium: Pastel

Artist Statement: This piece was inspired by an old homestead site found in the Sarvis Creek area. All that remains of the homesteaders’ dreams are the four corners of the foundation and this field of poppies, nature has reclaimed the rest. How long can the earth sustain humans with clean air, water and land without our help?
