“A smattering of materials that have brought me “A smattering of materials that have brought me inspiration here at the Tallgrass Artist Residency. My favorite would have to be @prairiedivination, a deck created by @mllemegan & @lannwheeler. Each time I pull a card — whether Milkweed, or Sensitive Briar, or Turkey Vulture, or the White-Tailed Deer — I feel the care, creativity, and wisdom that fed the creation of this deck, and simultaneously l glimpse another layer of the earthly and spiritual complexities this ecoregion holds.†— Daniel Kessel

Shared the Windmill Pasture with roaming bison. Meditated on the words of poet Denise Low: “The tallgrass prairie stirs the imagination not because it is empty, but because it is vast.†– from her essay “Touching the Sky.â€â€ – Daniel Kessel
