Sentinel of the Plains
Original acrylic painting · 16″ x 20″

A quiet Kansas landscape held in a single frame.
A lone windmill stands against open sky, a steady presence on the horizon—less a subject than a witness to what has passed and what remains.

This piece sits within the long lineage of the Midwest: sun, wind, endurance. It doesn’t announce itself. It waits. The more time you give it, the more the small decisions—line, color, distance—begin to surface.

“This piece is deeply personal to me. I painted it not just as a landscape, but as a tribute to the pioneers of Kansas and to the spirit of endurance that still echoes through these open skies.
Let it remind you that even what seems forgotten can still stand proud, rooted in purpose.” – P. Forbes

Framed and ready to hang, the painting is meant to be lived with—returned to—rather than simply seen once.
