When you buy local art in Kansas, you’re doing more than picking out something beautiful — you’re supporting the people who make our communities vibrant. Local artists put their hearts into their work, telling the stories of our land, our shared experiences and help bring color and richness to our lives. Every purchase helps an artist keep creating, keep growing, and keep adding meaning to the cultural life of Kansas. You’re not just buying a product — you’re investing in someone’s voice, passion, and purpose.

Our local galleries are more than places to hang art, they’re gathering spaces where creativity lives and connection happens. By supporting Kansas galleries, you’re helping preserve spaces that give artists opportunities, bring people together, and keep the arts accessible to everyone. When you choose to buy from a local gallery, you strengthen your local economy, your community, and your connection to the place you call home. Local art has roots — and it grows when we support it.

The group show "Affinity" is up through mid November at the Carriage Factory Art Gallery in Newton. My paintings on display include this series of experiments with a red gesso background: "Barn Party," "Kansas Petroglyphs," and "Rabbit Heaven." The fantasy Rabbit Heaven got the most comments at the show opening.

This painting began with a roadside walk in Tuscany; I used crushed flower petals and stems to lay out its lines and first colors.

It, and other paintings from Lucca, will be available at Newton's Carriage Factory Art Gallery September 21-November 14. More info about the show is here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1031658282001991/1031658418668644/?event_time_id=1031658418668644

William Carlos Williams' Red Wheel Barrow poem is now represented in a Pittsburgh, PA, community garden. Jane & I did this one -- the broken wheel barrow was headed for the landfill, ditto the shipping pallet that we rescued from a local art supply store; the white rooster was a weather vane at a reclamation yard.
This is a very handsome bit of guerrilla art sneaked onto the site. I hope all the gardeners enjoy Williams' 100-yr-old poem.
