Red-tailed hawks are highly adaptable and can be found in a variety of habitats throughout the state. Although they can inhabit forests, wetlands, and even urban areas, they prefer open country, patrolling the grasslands, prairies and ag fields of our region. 

Prairie clover, lupine, and black-eyed susans are among a variety of flowers native to the area, and serve as forage for small mammals rummaging through pastures and plains. I incorporated these plants, along with the tracks of squirrels and rabbits around the hawks head, to suggest the relationship that these species share with one another. 

Whether plant, predator or prey, I believe each deserves appreciation for the balance and beauty they bring to the natural world.

“Spring Creek Symphony”

This project was aimed at highlighting some of our area’s most beautiful native stream dwelling creatures, and the connections they share with one another. An addiction to seeking trout and trying to better understand their diet, behaviors, and preferred habitat has led to a lot of time spent exploring local streams, as well as sitting behind a vise. As anglers, we often get to observe the exchange that exist between aerial species such as eagles, ospreys and an array of airborn insects, and the stream dwelling trout that are both the predators and prey of these various winged creatures above. There’s an intriguing beauty in this give and take, and I wanted to create this piece as an homage to these species and the divine balance that exists within the natural world.

“Northwoods Forage”

Northern Minnesota themed mural created in collaboration with Minny Grown

We set out to create something representative of our northwoods region and its natural areas, and chose to focus on a black bear as the primary inspiration. I wanted to illustrate some of the connections that black bears have to local flora, as well as the interconnected nature of these various plant species and fungi. Blueberries, chokecherries, acorns, honey mushrooms, clover, and insect larva all contribute to a black bear’s diet, and also share many relationships among themselves (blueberries love the shade of oaks, bees will inhabit oaks and pollinate clover and berry plants, honey mushrooms feed saprophytically on oaks, etc). Not only in nature, but in life, all things share connections with one another. There’s a John Muir quote that has stuck with me since I first read it as a teenager:

“When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe”

This work was inspired by the idea that as we journey through life, each of us holds near and dear deep aspirations, goals, a vision or purpose, that’s as unique to each of us as our own life experiences.

As we work towards that goal, we are bound to encounter ups and downs, or wins and losses along the way. When we keep our head up and stay true to our path, I believe we will be guided towards our deepest calling and purpose in life.

The bear in this composition represents the reflective and determined mind, never losing sight of it’s vision or goal. The fish represent the various people, relationships, opportunities and encouragement that help sustain and allow us to push forward, even in tough times, towards our calling. The human head frames the scene to suggest that as individuals, we are all navigating the ebbs and flows in our journey getting there.
