"Farm Heritage" Giclée Edition on Archival Canvas



Farm Heritage" of the 'American Memories Series’

This is the multi-generational Bergdale farm near Alcester, South Dakota. I was commissioned to paint this work of art as a keepsake n’ memory of a bringing up the tradition within the Bergdale family of living and working on the farm. This scene is now gone and is now a field. Time passes, but memories should not have to pass because the memories and images hopefully live on through the art. We were fortunate to use some of the siding from this barn to create the frame in which holds the original work of art.

I decided to release a print edition in response to seeing these family heirlooms fade before my eyes to the elements and the growing insensitivities’ of commercial farming indulgences. I always wanted to record the rural life of the past, and I have been finding that in many of the instances within most of my work relating to this subject, it has been the only recorded representations left.
