<imgsrc="/img/BBcJV0motK-1200.jpeg"alt="a 3 picture collage. Image 1 is Hope Black, long wavy hair, sitting on a stool barefoot, smiling at the camera, with paint brushes and a roller in one hand. One knee up, in a pose of nonchalance but with a welcoming air. I love you! Image 2 is A photograph taken by Hope Black on the Kansas Prairies. A herd of American Bison as seen through a barbed wire fence. One of the herd turned around and looked at the camera. The feeling of the image I macabre, with a sepia tone and made to look antique and shabby. Meant to evoke a sense of nostalgia and also sadness at the history of these lands and animals in the Americas. Image 3 is part of a larger painting by Hope Black. Medium is rusty trash, acrylic paint, latex paint and toner transfer method on wood. Sign reads The earth is what we all have in common. quote by Wendell Berry"loading="lazy"decoding="async"width="1200"height="953">
<p>I turn trash into treasured art. My intention is simple: the remind us that we are not only part of the earth, we *are* the earth. My hope is that this connection inspires loving stewardship and community.</p>
