This is my first attempt at a blog, so forgive me if it is a bit hokey.
I am just a farmer who is excited about the life around me. I am a steward of our little 7 acre farm and every day I look around and see beauty and life. I love the fact that when I look out from the porch I see movement and something, anything but a dead yard full of grass.
I have ups and downs as a farmer. There is a saying that if you have livestock, you will eventually have dead stock. So there are days when being a farmer just sucks, but you go on. I have learned and grown so much as a person because of all the life around me.
I started off just photographing the animals and things I found interesting and in the last two years got serious about painting that beauty. My desire is to share it with others and inspire them as well.
I am only a farmer for the past six years or so. Before that I was a nobody. That weird cousin or girl at work. I have heard a lot of comments from friends and family after I became a farmer on how they love to hear the stories about the farm and how they would love to be doing what I am doing. Who knew?
