Watershed (2,026)
$$1,000.00
A watershed is an area of ridge of land that separates waters flowing to different rivers or basins or an area or region drained by a river or river system. Spring Creek drains to the Illinois River which winds its way through our region. Like circulatory systems in our bodies, creeks, streams, and rivers are vital to the health of our shared landscape. Cutting and piecing paper into a “paper quilt” is analogous to the idea that landscapes are made of individual elements each with their own role in the narrative. This piece, “Watershed,” honors the relationship between the rolling Ozark hills, the stillness found in shallow waters, and the sky above.

What is Spring Creek to you?
Water is sacred. The sound of running water is healing. Dipping toes in conjures childhood memories and delight. Finding shadows and ripples. Schools of fish. Leaves floating downstream. Cairns.
