“Wyoming”
Collaborators’ Q&A: Artist Kara Searcy: I like that not only did the author write about dreaming, but that the poem had a dreamy quality. I wanted to capture that dreamy quality in the painting. Poet Jill Osier: I think everything about the sun surprised me… I love it… Maybe it’s because Wyoming suggests horizons to me, and here the sun seems to say “now” and “here”…
Poet Jill Osier is the author of two chapbooks of poems. Her work has been supported by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Wisconsin Institute for Creative Writing, the Rasmuson Foundation, and Phillips Exeter Academy. Artist Kara Searcy is a multi-media artist from Iowa.
