About my Dust Bowl Glimpses paintings:
The idea for this series came to me last summer after reading John Steinbeck’s Pulitzer-prize winning novel, The Grapes of Wrath, and helping my mother digitize a photo collection of her ancestors who homesteaded on the prairies of Kansas and Colorado in the early 1900s. I came away from both experiences with a much greater understanding of the human condition during the Great Depression, specifically of those families displaced by the Dust Bowl.
My paintings are dedicated to the impoverished people who, despite hardship, extended a hand to help strangers because it was the human thing to do.
Thank you so very much for looking.
Cheers, Mandy
